It was a busy few weeks for Elizabeth Morland, competing in the Women’s Pentathlon in the 2020 Indoor Combined Events Tallinn in Estonia on Sunday Feb 9th and in Athlone on Wed. 12th. Elizabeth came 7th overall in the Combined from a very competitive field of 23, with a new pb of 4169 points beating her old pb of 4041 by 128 points. A very impressive performance which will inspire confidence going forward. Elizabeth also won the Senior Women’s Long Jump in the AIT International Grand Prix 2020.

Well done to both Zoe Mohan and Donal Kearns who were competing yesterday in the Indoor University Track and Field Championships held in Athlone. Zoe competing for DCU won the 8kg weight for distance with a throw of 8.25m while Donal who was representing TCD won the Combined Event comprising of the 60m hurdles, Shot Put, Long Jump  High Jump and the 1000m. Congrats to our two National University Champions. 👍👍

Cushinstown juvenile athletes traveled to Athlone for Day 1 and 2 of the Leinster Indoor Juvenile Championships. We had 23 athletes competing over the two days and they all put in great performances coming away with 10 medals and qualification to the national championships. Well done to all of them! There was great success in the high jump, Silver medals for Nia Hetherton and Lee Callaghan, and bronze medals for Aoife Rohan and Jane McDermott.  Peter Bellew also secured his place in the National Championships coming 4th, while James Bellew, Kyle Hetherton all jumped well on the day but were unlucky not to finish in the top 4. In the sprints Silver medal for Laura Bolster with great running from Isabella Gogan and Abi Sheehy (400m), while Loclainn Harris claimed two Silver medals for 200m sprint & 60mH.  Also doing well in the 60mH was Mollie White & Saoirse Power who both claimed a bronze medal and very close 4th place for Ella Barry.  There was also some great hurdling by Peter Bellew, Nia Hetherton, Doireann Power, Aoife Rohan and Roisin Quinn. In the Long Jump, Ella Barry claimed a Silver medal while Orlaith Quinn placed in 4th to claim her spot for the National Championships, there was also great jumping from Isabella Gogan, Amy Callaghan, Kyle Hetherton and Nessa Rohan.  In the Shot we had  Saoirse Power, Nia Hetherton, Doireann Power, Eoin McDermott, Roisin Quinn, Jane McDermott and Kyle Hetherton all throwing very well.  It was the first Leinster Championships for some of our members and all gained valuable competition experience, well done to all.

Registrations are now due for 2020 and can be taken at any training session. New members welcome for all ages from 6 years. Registration forms available in the clubhouse.

We also have our new outdoor walking track available for parents/guardians to use while the young athletes are training so there is no excuse not to get active this year!

It was a busy two weekends for Elizabeth Morland who won the All Ireland senior women’s Combined Events in Athlone last Saturday running the 60m hurdles in 8.83 seconds, high jump with a jump of 1.73m, shot putt with a throw of 10.74m and running the 800m in 2:32.76. Elizabeth and club mate Zoe Mohan competed in the Irish Life Health U20 and U23 Indoor Championships in Athlone this weekend with Elizabeth winning the women’s U23 long jump with a jump of 5.75, and placed 2nd in the women’s U23 shot putt with a throw of 11.85, and Zoe winning the women’s U23 weight for distance with a throw of 6.52. Well done to both.
