Ladies & Gentlemen, Waterford AC Masters are where its all at;
1st Club in Over 35 Men and 2nd Club in Over 35 ladies it was a super display of cross country running at St Augustines College in Dungarvan today in crisp sunny November conditions.
Frank Quinlan lead home a very strong men's team of David Drohan, Frank Walsh, Jim Baldwin, Finley Weir, Kevin Malone, Darryl Hale, Eoin Palmer and Malachy McGlynn to claim the 1st Club medal and also he and Dave, Frank and Jim were the scoring four to claim County Silver, so great running allround. Frank was 2nd home in the O35 category too.
In a seriously competitive ladies race Diane Behan ran very strong throughout and with Silvia Malone and Cait Caulfield hot on the trail all three got double silver for their efforts as they were 2nd club and were three of the scoring members of the county team. Diane also was 2nd in the O40 individual category.
In an excellent display of controlled running Larry Kennedy came home for individual gold in the O50 category and helped the county team to bronze. Con Kelleher and Derek Grant showed great endurance over the course and narrowly missed on club bronze with West Waterford beating them into 4th by just a few points.
A master display of cross country teamwork by all and not to forget our other Master athletes of Maire Lawlor, Gabrielle Blair and Lydia Thornton who reluctantly hung up their spikes for the day and acted as Munster Officials...and enjoyed cheering on their club members ...and the free tea and chips after!!
