Meehan's Masters' Irish team win Silver!

Congratulations to Sligo AC's Tom Meehan who placed fifth in the Irish Team during the recent Home Countries Masters Cross Country Championships held in Birmingham, UK. Tom was Sligo AC's first International Masters Competitor and had qualified as part of the Irish team in recent trials in Dublin. The Irish Team secured second place silver medals in the race which Meehan described as a "nice course but conditions were cold, wet and windy".Tom would be well used to such wintery conditions during his frequent training runs with Lucy Brennan and Damien McSharry on the race course in all types of weather! Well done also to Sligo AC Athletes Conal Sexton and Roy Kelly who partook in the Clarenbridge 10k on Sunday last and came in in 18th (41.05) and 21st (41.51) positions respectively. The race was won by Mayo AC's John Byrne in 33.23
