During Active School Week, boys from Junior Infants to First Class took part in extra athletics training in preparation for the Raheny Shamrocks Run in aid of the ISPCC.
Boys prepared by practising the 500m distance that they would be required to run at the race. We learned about pacing ourselves over long distances and the different speeds we can run at.
On Sunday, we were proud to see so many boys turn up to run for this very worthy cause and to complete the whole 500m course. Well done to all the boys who took part, both in the training and in the race.
