Thursday 15th Nov

On Thursday 15th Nov, we had a very well received talk on nutrition in the Ballywaltrim clubhouse. The talk was delivered by John Baldwin, nutrition expert, and promient member of Kilcoole A.C. The talk was attended by a group of 20 members, all of whom agreed that it was a very well presented and informative evening. Our thanks to John for his time and his excellent presentation.

Sean and Carmel led another group of 10 athletes on a 45 minute session on the roads around Ballywaltrim.

A couple of results to hand, Susan Dowd ran 67.47 in the Run for Newcourt, 8 mile, on saturday 10th Nov, and 50.28 in the Run in the Dark 10k on Wed, 14th nov. Also in the Run in the Dark 10k, Rachel Gilliland ran 41.41, which we believe is a new pb.

Over the next couple of thursday nights we will be doing some speed work as the Wicklow C/C Senior and then Masters approach.
