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.
