Did you hear the one about the cross-country races cancelled because of rain? The downpours of the last few days might scare off the softer runners, but we’ve never been a soft nation when it comes to cross-country running irishtimes.com/sport/athleti…

We had the Sod Turning for the St Thomas’ Multi-sport Complex this afternoon. Adding multi sport & track enclosure buildings, to the fantastic existing track, is phase 2 of this sports campus. This reflects the incredible work of @DSDAC over many years in partnership with @dlrcc

Just if you know any children in Ireland  - under-16s go for FREE this weekend to the senior national athletics championships in Santry. Last year, Ciara Mageean stayed three hours afterward, for selfies and autographs with schoolkids.  As Sophie Becker did last Saturday with our little athletes, when she came to squeeze in a quick workout on the @DSDAC track!

I’m so utterly proud of my friends at @DSDAC for putting on such a fantastic @Sandyford5k this evening, raising funds for the excellent work done by the @Downsyndromecen - Ireland's only charity for children with Down syndrome. The medals and ice cream committee did VERY WELL.
