Another brilliant week of training across the club 💛🖤
We’re getting closer now, Dublin City Half Marathon, Geneva Marathon (Half, Full & 10K)… the big days are coming, and you can feel it in the group.
⚫️ Seniors 🟡
A really strong, consistent week of training 👏
Tuesday kicked things off in Poppintree Park, followed by an easy run on Thursday which set things up perfectly for a quality tempo session on Saturday morning in Santry Park, a great session with excellent effort across all groups.
Sunday brought us back to what it’s all about, the long run.
We ran from the clubhouse on a beautiful morning and finished with a brilliant get together at Treat Yourself coffee dock beside Setanta. Coffee, chats, and that sense of community after putting in the work, that’s what makes it special.
A big well done as well to all our members who took part in the Great Ireland Run 10K. Great to see Ballymun AC well represented once again 👏
A special mention as well to one of our female athletes, Collette, who secured 2nd place in her age category, an incredible achievement and a real inspiration to everyone in the club. It’s a reminder that consistency, commitment and love for the sport has no limits.
🟡 Juniors ⚫️
The juniors continue to tip away nicely with their training in Poppintree Park.
There’s great consistency, great energy, and you can see the progress building week by week. With events on the horizon, it’s an exciting time for the group.
⚫️ Club Message 🟡
Weeks like this remind us what the club is all about.
Showing up.
Putting in the work.
Supporting each other.
Enjoying the process.
That buzz you feel at sessions, at races, and even over a coffee after a long run, that doesn’t happen by accident. It’s built by every single person who shows up and plays their part.
So let’s keep it going.
Keep showing up.
Keep building.
We’re moving in the right direction.
Up The Flats 🖤💛
