Athlone Athletics Club

A great weekend of running for our club members!

On Thursday, Enda Dowling claimed victory in the Tubberclare 5 Miler, with Ciaran Galvin finishing in an excellent second place.

Rebecca Rushe and Caroline Cuneen also had fantastic performances, securing 2nd and 3rd places respectively.

Today saw several of our members travel to take part in the Ladies Mini Marathon, with superb running performances all around.

Damien Mitchell and Holly Moloney travelled to Cork to run the marathon, and what a day they had!
Holly crossed the line in an outstanding time of 3:14:42, while Damien finished strongly in 3:23:25. Amazing achievements from both runners.
Congratulations also to Ciaran Lennon who ran a super Marathon in Cork today also .

Once again, a huge thank you to our coach Gary, whose dedication, training plans, and support continue to help our members achieve such fantastic results.

Just about sold out …

Today, 19 members of our club travelled to climb Croagh Patrick. What an incredible challenge — both mentally and physically — for us all, and the heat definitely didn’t help! But we did it! We had a fantastic day filled with determination, support, laughter, and amazing memories. So proud of everyone who made it to the top! 💚⛰️

Only 10 Half Marathon entries left

Well done to everyone who ran and volunteered at the Athlone 10 Miler this morning. As always, the club was brilliantly represented, with a sea of blue all around Clonown. 💙
The support, atmosphere and team spirit on the day were amazing, and every single person should be proud of their effort. From the front runners to those chasing personal goals, everyone gave it their all and represented the club so well.
Massive performances all round from everyone involved. A special mention to our very own Aine , who was the first lady home in an incredible 1.04.42 — with proud mam Maura not too far behind!
Another PB day for Pauric, Alison and Olivia, just to name a few. Exceptional runs also from Pauric, Dario, Derek, Enda and Ross.
Our ladies were outstanding as always, and there were smiles, determination and great running right across the board. What a lovely day for running — well done again everyone! 👏
