Fixtures Updated

Please see the updated fixture list as of the county board meeting on 2nd of May. Note that Day 3 of the Inter Club League is now fixed for Wednesday 20th June at 7pm in Claremont and that there are two new road races to the calendar namely Cushinstown 6k on the 25th July at 7.30pm in Pudden Hill and Ratoath AC 5k on Sunday 16th September at 2pm. There are now 19 open events hosted by Meath Clubs ( 2 T&F Sports and 14 road races with one each of Hill Running, Trail Running and Cross Country). The beach run is caught out by the tides for dates in July but I will revisit both the tide-tables and our fixture list to see if I can find a possible date. Look at the Leinster Athletics website for closing dates etc for their championships and entry forms. For Day 2 & 3 of the T&F Championships in Claremont Stadium there will be breakfast served for officals from 9.30am. All late entries have to be done by a club offical and there will be no late entries accepted for any events after 10.30am in Claremont Stadium on both the 13th & 20th of May as decided at last night's County Board Meeting. These rules will be strictly adhered to. Day 4 of the Meath Championships namely the relays is on Friday 25th May. Athletes for the first relay of the evening will have to be assembled for 6.45pm so that we can start the event sharp at 7pm. I have also attached a spreadsheet with both Meath and Louth permitted races (road, trail, T&F and cross country). As you can see there are enough of fixtures on the list to keep all athletes happy and there should be no need for any club member to run in non-permitted events. Also I would urge you run in a club organised race before any other race as they provide vital funds for club finances and we should support those that develop the sport of athletics within each county.
