Eva Massey retained her Irish Championship shot putt title at Santry in the AAI Senior Championships. Her winning putt of 15.22m was close to 3m ahead of the field.
There was less success on the mens’ side as they struggled with miserable conditions. Michael Dyer ran 1.59.29 in the 800m placing 20th out of 34. James Budde was 16th at 1500m in 4.12.21. David Robb was 4th in high jump at 1.85m while Paul Curran struggled to find a valid jump in the long jump. In a ferociously competitive 400m John Saulters ran 50.73 placing 15th out of 26.
