Martina Wins International Silver
On Saturday week last Carrick AC athlete, Martina O' Dwyer, travelled as part of the Irish team to Bute Park in Cardiff for the British and Irish Masters' Cross-Country Championships. Martina is the first Carrick Roadrunners member to represent Ireland and was joined on the ladies' team by Natasha Adams and Annette Quaid. Martina put in a superb effort to finish in 17th position overall and secured the vital points to give Ireland the silver team medals. All in the club congratulate Martina on her selection for the team and her wonderful achievement.
Irish Senior Cross-Country
Patrick Roche was a member of the Tipperary team at the Irish Senior Cross-Country Championships in Santry last Sunday. As usual, Patrick gave 100 per cent in finishing 115th in a very large field. This experience at the highest national level will stand Patrick in good stead with the county cross-country championships in mind.
