Munster/National Indoors so far!

My apologies for neglecting the blog a little of late.A few trips to Nenagh have already been made by many athletes of late with the Munster junior & senior,National juniors and AAI games.At the National juniors Kerry squad athlete Peter O Brien St Brendan's in only his second competition in the 35lb wfd took gold to add to his Munster gold with 7.98m.PJ Galvin again showed his consistancy clearing 1.85m again to finsih 3rd and is coming closer to clearing 1.90 every time he jumps thanks to the technical work done by squad coach Rosie Daniels.Other squad athletes to perform well included Dylan Roche 4th 200m PB,Luke O Keeffe 6th 400m PB,Ailbhe Courtney 4th 60mH PB and 6th 400m PB,Ben Dennessen 5th 60mH PB all St Brendan's.


Eoin O Carroll Tralee harriers took gold in the triple jump and silver in the long jump with his team mate Sinead O Connor finishing in third place in the triple jump.Emma Prendiville Farranfore Mainevalley finished in second place in the 3km racewalk where it took a new national record to beat her.

Kerry athletics probably had their strongest ever performances at the Munster junior/senior indoors.The standout performance was the championship best perfromance by the St Brendan's AC junior mens 4x200m relay when they won in 1.37.2.As there are too many other performances to mention below are the Kerry results-
