I am an athlete. 

I am involved in Running and Fast Walking. 

I go training 3 days a week. I go with my friends from Monasterevin.

W e attend  Newbridge Athletic club. Many people attend this club.

I have 2 trainers, 1 for Fast Walking and 1 for Running. The club also trains for Long Jump, High Jump, Triple Jump, Shot put and Hurdles. We attend races all over Ireland and England. I hope to go to England in May to participate in an International Fast Walking Race.

I went  to Mosney in 1999. I qualified to enter in the U13 Community Games event. 

Newbridge is a brilliant club to train with great trainers. We go training from 6 to 8pm on Mondays and Wednesdays, and Saturday mornings.

                                          

                   
    Here is a selection of                 

                                the many medals I have won.

 

 

 

 

In April 2001 I entered the Cumann na mBunscol Cross Country Event in a team of six pupils from our school.

I came in 1st. Place out of 90 runners. 

I have just qualified to represent Kildare in Mosney on a Community Games Relay Team.
