Leinster Indoor Championships Nenagh
Sunday January 30th 2011
 
Martina O'Dwyer had an amazing day in Nenagh on Sunday last when she competed in Leinster Indoor Championships. Martina ran a 3k race which she won in a brilliant time of (10.35) giving her another P.B, she also broke the Irish Indoor over 35 record for this event by 12 seconds. This is a great achievement for her and we have no doubt that her success will continue throughout the year.
