Amy Foster ran at the Ateletica Genēve on Sunday as part of a small Irish team. At the EAP meeting, she was 2nd at 200m in 24.87 sec (-0.8) and 4th at 100m in 11.83 sec (+0.5). Lower down the age scale, the Northern Ireland and Ulster U13 Championships took place in Donegal at the Finn Valley Centre where Niall McGrattan had pbs at javelin and shot, finishing 3rd with 24.94m and 4th with 8.82m.
Nostagia buffs would have enjoyed the Ulster U13 Championships on the gravel surface. It is hard to realise we now have a generation of athletes who have never trained or competed on anything other than a tartan track.
On Saturday and Sunday, Tom Reynolds was 9th with 6673 points at the AAA Senior Decathlon in Birmingham. His results were 100m 11.41 sec; LJ 6.44m; Shot 12.50m; HJ 1.82m; 400m 50.55 sec; 110mH 15.41 sec; Dis 36.05m; PV 4.05m; Jav 45.55m; 1500m 4:51.74 min.
