Munster Title for Killian Whelan

The Munster B Track and Field Championship took place in CIT (same venue as Cork City Sports) on Saturday 21st July and the club was represented by 2 Clonmel AC athletes. The conditions were far from ideal with a strong headwind at the stadium end and temperatures of 27 degrees. First up was Killian Whelan in the boys U12 Long Jump and Killian with a best jump of 3.95m took the Gold medal and the Munster Title for Clonmel.

Next up was Sarah Whelan in the girls u9 Long jump and Sarah jumped very well to finish in 6th place with a jump of 2.81. The final event for Clonmel was the boys u12 80m sprint and here Killian came through the heats to make the final and although running a PB of 11.13 and getting the same time as the 3rd place athlete was just outside the medals in 4th position.
