  • Long Jump: 4.10m (PB, 1st)

Up 20cm on the 3.90m she jumped in August, three days after her high jump at the state championships. That is five PBs from seven competitions this season, including the high jump to 1.39m and the 200m to 31.59s.

Tadhg Crowley

  • 60m: 7.31s (wind +2.8, 1st)
  • 90m Hurdles: 14.96s

The quickest 60m in the squad, but with a +2.8 m/s tailwind. Anything over +2.0 cannot count as a PB, season best or record, though it still counts for national qualifying up to +4.0. Tadhg has competed nine times this season, with PBs in the 90m hurdles (13.60s), 80m hurdles (12.73s), shot put (13.07m) and 200m (24.04s).

David Neill

  • 200m: 26.82s (1st)

Dave ran in the 50+ division and took the win in this category boosting the morale as he returns from a short break following a long 2025-26 season and competing at Worlds in Daegu, Korea.

Coach Ryan

  • Long Jump: 5.70m (SB, 1st)
  • 60m: 7.49s (SB, 1st)
  • 110m Hurdles: 15.53s (1st)

Coach said that he was looking forward to the openers in these events as the windy conditions were looking promising. Good intel. Back to training.
