On Wednesday 23rd October, the two 5th and 6th classes attended an athletics event organized by Athletics Ireland in Kilbogget Park. Under the sun and clear skies, we participated in a number of events, such as long jump, javelin, shot put and hurdles. Then the main event - we ran a mile on the amazing running track! Two laps of the track equalled a mile. We had been practicing for a long time, and the training paid off! We were awarded a medal and a cool trophy when we completed our laps! Congratulations to all the athletes! Huge thanks to Pádraig for all his help with the training, and to Ms. McAdam for signing us up for this event!
