Proud and privileged we felt cheering from the sidelines as the 32 athletes from St. Mary’s and St. Gerard’s N.S. ran their hearts out for each other and our school at the Wicklow Invitational Athletics Cross Country Relay Event in Avondale on Tuesday 23rd September. Each class had a team of 4 girls and a team of 4 boys and each team competed with 25-30 teams from other schools in Wicklow. 3rd and 4th Class athletes ran 250m each, while 5th and 6th Class athletes ran 500m each. We were really proud of how each athlete ran and with how all the runners in our school supported each other. Thank you to Ms. Carruth for her excellent coaching advice, tactics, baton passing practice and warm-up. Our results were better with your coaching. Thank you to Ms. Healy and Susan Peterson for your support and help at the event.
