๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŽ“18 (yes, 18) of our coaches completed the assistant coach course last Saturday on the campus and in sunshine.  ๐ŸŒž 
๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸฅˆCiara Wilson Bowen was a barely noticed 2nd in the English indoor champs 3,000m walk. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
๐ŸฅˆOur T&F field teams lie second in both menโ€™s and womenโ€™s in the national indoor champs after Sundayโ€™s round.  
Highlight for me was the 4x200m w relay team which included a 15-year-old (Evelyn (very) Kwik) and a 50-year-old (must be discreet).  They won their heat. ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ‰

๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ And a European W50 record for Adina Gheorghiu in the 60m.  (I see three DSD women in the top 10 rankings over 60m this season so far.)๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

โ˜”๏ธ The campus survived storm Eowyn with little damage.

๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ A strong team was picked for the European Champion Clubs Cross Country on 2nd Feb:  Amy Donohue, Eimear Maher, Jamie Byrne and Joe Hastings will wear the famous silver vests in Portugal.  ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น Rob Corbally and Donal Hennigan will carry the tracksuits.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Iโ€™m looking forward to Elizabeth Ndudi (LJ) ๐Ÿคธ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธgoing again this weekend in Illinois and Hiko running the Seville Half Marathon.  ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ Hiko has the B standard in the marathon for the world champs in Tokyo and is preparing for the Rotterdam marathon.

And equally exciting, we have a first aid โ›‘๏ธ course for coaches this Saturday on the campus.
