Graded Meet 6 - Roundup
Six Crusaders athletes were in action at the Graded Meet at Santry this Wednesday: Gareth Dunne, Patrick Saunders, and John Keegan all saw action in the 400m with Gareth winning the B grade in 52.15 with John third eighty-three hundreds back. Patrick finished third in the C grade in 54.34.
The 1500m saw the welcome return of Sam Mealy, back from his stint in the States, who recorded a timeof 4:07.45 to finish eigth in the A grade. Club captain Gary Park hauled home ninth in the B grade with his run in 4:20.43.
Jason Kehoe had stepped off the mountains for a stint to get his track debut. Perhaps his exploits on the slopes of Lugnacoille the previous Sunday still sat in his legs for it turned into a baptism of fire with Jason 15th in the 3000m where all grades had been amalgamated. Yet this being his first 3k race, the time of 10.19 stands as a new PB for the newly crowned King of the Mountains who’ll look to lower that performance by a good bit once his legs acclimatise to the flat.
