Meet and Train Winter League sees Tallaght AC of to a bright start!

Tallaght Athletic Club fielded 2 teams in last Sundays first race of the Meet+Train Winter League.
The race was held on a bright Sunday morning but conditions were tough following last week’s downpours.

In all 133 runners started the race and the girls from Tallaght were up there with the best of them from the word go.

Full results are not available yet but four of the Tallaght athletes achieved top twenty placings. Pride of place must go to Sharon Tighe who made her debut in the Tallaght vest finishing in 6th place. Lisa Curley certainly stepped up to the mark with a super run in 12th place while Paula Murray and Susan Adams also achieved top twenty placings.

Well done too to Martina Farrell, Janice Mahon, Susan Holland , Mairead Nic Siosta and Michelle Fitzpatrick.

The next race takes place in Tymon Park on Sunday November 22nd 2009 and a strong showing from Tallaght is expected.
