Kerry AAI Cross Country Day 1&2

The Kerry cross country season is into full swing with the Novice/even ages being held in the demense Killarney last Sunday and the Intermediate/masters & uneven ages being held in Beaufort today.Kerry athletics decided to keep the old cross country distances for this season with a view to gradually increasing them over the next two years to catch up with the national distances.Even so numbers were on a par with last year but the quality of racing was up hugely with some fantastic displays by some extremely talented distance runners.As this blog is mainly focused on the Kerry squads which are U13+ only results from these age groups will be listed for the year.Below is a list of the top 3 from each event.
