Rosses AC athletes took on the Donegal Juvenile Championships and the Boston Marathon this week.
Sunday last saw another great day out for the club’s U14 to U19 juveniles as they travelled to the Donegal Track and Field Championships hosted by Lifford AC. On the day there were many strong performances, new personal bests and podium/medal performances across multiple events from sprint, middle distance to jumps, throws and relays.
Up next for the juveniles it’s heads down in training for the next few weeks with the Ulster Championships coming in early June.
The recent prestigious Boston Marathon 2025 took place on Bank Holiday Monday with the 129th running of this iconic race. Brendan McBride did what was needed to gain his automatic qualification ticket through his finish time in the London Marathon last year and he certainly earned his medal running a solid time of 3:47.
On the local front Maria Mulligan ran 18:50 in Dungloe Park Run with Bernie Boyle and Charlie Postie O Donnell getting a training run in and running 20 minutes.
At the Letterkenny Park Run Michael Logue ran 20:20 and in Falcarragh Noel Boyd ran 25 minutes.
