CHAMPIONSHIP CROSS COUNTRY SEASON IS BACK THIS COMING SUNDAY
JFK Arboretum is the venue for the opening day of the championship cross country season in County Wexford this coming Sunday - October 6th.
United Striders AC are playing host to the event - many thanks to the club for again securing this excellent venue for the days action, as apart from a great area for running the races on, there is loads of car parking on the site, a café and toilet facilities.
The even-ages juvenile race programme starts at 12 noon, then not before 2pm the novice programme starts, with the ladies 4km race first off, followed by the mens 6km race, when the final lady has finished.
Athletes from AAI-registered clubs are eligible to compete once they haven't won an individual gold, silver or bronze medal at novice (or higher) level before this year - in other words anyone who hasn't medalled individually before 2019 are free to run, even those who won individual medals in the road race championships earlier this Spring.

MICK MURPHY MEMORIAL 4 MILES ROAD RACE RESULTS - FERNS, CO WEXFORD - SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 7TH 2019
Many thanks to everyone who ran the Mick Murphy four miles road race last Saturday evening in Ferns.
It was another great evening, with an excellent entry of over 170 individuals, with 158 finishing the race.
The weather was great for the race, with bright sunshine and warm temperatures greeting everyone for registration in Ferns community centre.
It was the traditional cavalry charge around the lap of the ''V'' in the village, before taking in the much longer run around the stump lane circuit.
Not for the first time, it was Freddy Keron Stuk who emerged as race winner, the Raheny Shamrock athlete getting the better of a good battle with Slaney Olympics Ger Forde, who ran a brilliant race to become one of the very few Wexford athletes to have broken 20 minutes on this course.
Kilmore athlete Fiona Kehoe, fresh from a busy track season, ran out a clear winner of the ladies race, coming home half a minute clear of Sli Cualanns Catherine O' Connor.
St Abbans AC made their trip from Laois worthwhile as they won the mens team prize (apart from some individual success also), while Sli Cualann fielded a strong team to bring the ladies prize back to Wicklow.
Full results are available on Popupraces' website at this link: https://www.popupraces.ie/race/mick-murphy-4-mile-road-race-2019/
Massive thanks to all our helpers and sponsors - it's a cliche to say, but the race really could not go ahead without all the voluntary help in the days leading up to raceday and on the day itself, while our sponsors come back year after year to give us a big help with extra expenses that the race endures, so all this is much appreciated.
Pictured is race winner Freddy Keron Stuk, along with Liam Breen of host club Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. - to check out more great photos taken by our race photographer search for Jospeh Dixon photos on facebook, massive thanks to Joe and Caitriona for coming to our race again to provide their brilliant services.

RESULTS OF ROUND 5 (FINAL ROUND) OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE - OLD BAWN BEACH 5KM RACE - WEDNESDAY JULY 24TH 2019
The 2019 SBR Summer league came to a conclusion last Wednesday evening as we travelled to Old Bawn beach near Ballygarrett for a 5km race on the strand.
It was great to see another turnout of over 30 runners, especially as it's the furthest venue from SBRs base of Ferns.
It was a lovely warm evening for running and with a prevailing strong headwind over the first half of the 5km, conditions were quite balmy.
Martin Monaghan made his intentions clear from early, setting off in front, with Denis Moynihan sitting second, the pair a few paces ahead of a large chasing pack.
The combination of soft sand, a strong tide coming into the runners' paths and the constant headwind made progress slower than usual to the halfway mark, but on turning, it was all change, with the wind now in the runners backs. Paul Gibbons came to the lead with a little over a kilometre to run and he held off a renewed and very determined challenge from Martin Monaghan to win, with Denis Moynihan in third.
This win saw Paul claim the overall league title, as himself and his brother Myles were level going into this round five, having won two legs each.
Lillian Lawless kept up her remarkable form, by coming home a clear winner and in the process winning all five rounds, great going over her home course, which she had marked out to the metre, so a big thanks to Lillian and her family for doing this for the club.
Well done to everyone who competed on the night and during the course of the league - many there on the night took the opportunity to get a dip in the Irish sea afterwards to aid the headling process.
Many thanks to the ladies who provided refreshments in the car park afterwards and to the time keepers who clocked everyone in over the line.
There will be a weeks break now, due to the second evening of the County Wexford senior track and field championships taking place next Wednesday evening at the sports hub in Enniscorthy, but the club will be starting cross country training the week after so keep an eye for training times and updates.

FINAL ROUND OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE THIS WEDNESDAY ON OLD BAWN BEACH
The fifth and final round of the 2019 SBR Summer league is on this coming Wednesday (July 24th), with the venue being Old Bawn beach near Ballygarrett in north Wexford.
The only other time that SBR have staged a race here was a great success a couple of years ago, so we are looking forward to another good evening of running, fun and refreshments.
The race hub will be the car park of Old Bawn beach, which is two miles from Ballygarrett village - just take the Kilmuckridge road (R742) out of Ballygarrett and there is a left-hand-turn a mile down this road (signposted Old Bawn) and the car park is at the bottom of this road.
The 5km race will start at 7-30pm and anyone who has run the league already just needs to turn up on the start line wearing the same race number they were given. Anyone who has not registered yet, just come along and we will be doing registration in the car park - we always welcome new faces and there is no obligation to join the club.
The last time we were here the race was an out-and-back course to cover the 5k and it envisaged that this will again be the case, depending on sand conditions on the evening.
We will be doing prizegiving for the league afterwards, with refreshments also being served.
For further info please contact us through SBR AC on facebook, send an email to web@sbrclub.com or phone club chairman Lukie Kehoe on 087-3222914.

RESULTS OF ROUND 4 OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE - FERNS 5KM - WED JULY 17TH 2019
Ferns was the venue for round four of the SBR Summer league last night, and we had a good turnout for the 5km race around the traditional lap of the stump.
Conditions were warm and muggy for running but with little or no wind it made for fast running, which saw a number of athletes record personal bests for the distance.
Many thanks to the helpers on the night, from lead car to stewarding to those at the finish line taking times, positions and photos.
Paul Gibbons was male winner on the night, meaning that both himself and his brother Myles have two wins apiece in the league, so it will all come down to the final race on the beach next to determine male winner of this years Summer league.
Lillian Lawless continued her irrestible form by making it a clean sweep of four out of four rounds of the league. Belinda Kehoe was second lady, with Christine Hill in third. Well done to all runners on the night.
Next week sees the league finish on the beach at Old Bawn, Ballygarrett - we will have full details about the 5km race on this website over the coming days.

ROUND 4 OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE IS IN FERNS THIS WEDNESDAY EVENING
The SBR Summer league swings back into action this week after the weeks break due to the first evening of County Wexford track and field action last Wednesday in Enniscorthy, with Ferns being the venue for round four.
The 5km race takes place tomorrow evening (Wednesday July 17th), with the start and finish area being Ferns castle - anyone who has ever taken part in races organised by SBR will be familiar with the start and finish lines.
The course sees runners head away from Ferns village, passing Ferns GAA club, turning left for Ballycarney, then taking another left down the stump lane, passing the Wexford GAA centre of excellence, before emerging on the N11 at Lodgewood and coming back in the hard shoulder, turning left at Kavanaghs funeral home to finish back at the castle. It's a well-trodden route, which most runners are familiar with and although there are drags on the circuit it is generally regarded as a relatively fast runnable course.
Anyone who has taken part in the league thus far just needs to turn up on the start line with the number you have been given.
If you haven't run the league yet just come along on the night and we will be doing registration from 7pm on the square outside Ferns castle.
For more info contact us via SBR AC on facebook, send us an email to web@sbrclub.com or phone our club chairman Lukie Kehoe on 087-3222914.
Looking forward to a good friendly night of competition.

CAMOLIN WOODS 5K RACE THIS WEDNESDAY EVENING - JULY 3RD 2019
LWe move off road for the third round of the SBR Summer league this coming Wednesday evening (July 3rd), as the event takes place in Camolin woods (access to the race area is from the middle of Camolin village - just take the road between the Church of Ireland and the petrol station, opposite Camolin national school, and the start line is located less than a mile down here on the entrance into the wooded area).
The race starts at 7-30pm and it takes place on good runnable trail, which is pretty flat and fast and is suitable for wearing road runners or racers, although trail running shoes would be suitable also.
It's still not too late to enter the league, as it's three rounds to count in the overall standings and with three races left (the Camolin round, the Ferns round and beach race), you can still get among the league results.
Anyone who has already registered for the league can just turn up on the start line and run with the race number you were given, while it's €10 to enter for new registrations and this will cover all remaining rounds of the league.
We have used this route before for our Summer league in the past few years and St Patricks GAA club also use it for their annual forest race in August, so plenty of ye are familiar with the terrain and course.
For more info please contact us on facebook via SBR AC, send us an email to web@sbrclub.com or phone our club chairman Lukie Kehoe on 087-3222914.
Looking forward to seeing a good turnout on the evening for what is always a nice sociable race.
RESULTS OF ROUND 2 OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE - BUNCLODY 5K - WED JUNE 26TH 2019
The second round of the SBR Summer league took place in a very sunny Bunclody this evening.
Thanks to Tomás Kavanagh for setting up the course and to the stewards who ensured that everyone got around the 5km safely. Thanks to the timekeepers also - the races can't take place without such good help all It was an out-and-back course, which started at Bunclody swimming pool, taking on a very steep half mile rise before proceeding to turn at a bollard and come back the very same route, but at least runners did have a very fast finish to the race.
Paul Gibbons was first across the line, closely followed by Martin Monaghan, while Lillian Lawless had a very strong run again to make it two out of two for the league, seeing off Belinda Kehoe.
Next weeks third round moves to Camolin woods, with a 5km trail race (on a flat course over very runnable trail), so it's a good chance to get a break from the road and try a different surface - looking forward to seeing a good turnout.

SBR SUMMER LEAGUE MOVES TO BUNCLODY THIS WEDNESDAY JUNE 26TH 2019
The second round of the SBR Summer league takes place in Bunclody this coming Wednesday evening (June 26th) at 7-30pm.
Race HQ is Bunclody swimming pool, which is located on the left as you come up out of Bunclody on the Carlow road.
We will be doing registration from 7pm - if you ran the first leg in Gorey last week, there is no need to register, just use the same race number you were given, turn up on the start line and run. If you didn't run in Gorey, you are more than welcome to participate as we always welcome anyone looking to try club running to see if it suits them - there is no obligation to join the club. Entry is ten euro and this will cover you for the duration of the league. In terms of league points, it's your best three results to count overall.
Here is a ''mapmyrun'' link to the course: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/2565084178
The route sees athletes begin on the road outside the swimming pool and run 2.5km along the N80, before turning at a bollard and running the same 2.5km back to the swimming pool. Although we have never used this course before, it has the potential to be quite a fast 5km route, as although there is a hill at the start, the finish will be downhill.
If you have any queries contact us through web@sbrclub.com or through SBR ACs facebook page. Alternatively, phone club chairman Lukie Kehoe on 087-3222914.
RESULTS OF ROUND 1 OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE - GOREY - WEDNESDAY JUNE 19TH 2019
The SBR Summer league kicked off in Gorey tonight (Wednesday June 19th), with a 5km race around the Ballyloughan circuit.
Well done to everyone who ran and many thanks to everyone who helped - we had Lukie Kehoe, Mag Lynch and Louise Kehoe on finish line duty, while Paul Lynch was in the lead car and Mick Redmond stewarded at the most important junction at Kilmurray cross roads.
It was a relatively warm evening for running, but without any sunshine and the rain that threatened to appear before the start held off.
Myles Gibbons started the league with a win, taking over from the leader Niall O' Connor at the halfway stage and then coming home a clear winner.
Lillian Lawless continued her tremendous form of late by running out a clear winner of the ladies race.
It was great to see some of our newer members out and to see some old faces return too, good going everyone.
Next weeks league will move to Bunclody on Wednesday June 26th at 7-30pm and we will have full route details up on this website in a couple of days.

WEXFORD SENIOR ROAD RACE REPORT AND RESULTS - MURRINTOWN FRIDAY JUNE 14TH 2019
Below are the full results of tonights Wexford senior road race championships that were hosted by Wexford Marathon Club in Murrintown. Many thanks to everyone who helped out on the evening, races like this don't take place without a good host club like Wexford Marathon Club and lots of voluntary workers and helpers.
Well done to all the athletes who fielded out on such a wet evening, the rain of the afternoon didn't relent and both races were held in a constant drizzle, which actually probably helped the athletes, as it kept conditions cool.
The ladies race over 5km was first off, with 33 runners toeing the line. Jackie Carty of Kilmore AC has won this title on numerous occasions in the past and spectators were intrigued to see how the novice and intermediate road winner Clodagh Kelly of Croghan AC would fare against her. There was little between the pair for the first two kilometres but in the latter part of the race, Jackie showed her strength as she readily pulled clear to run out an impressive winner. Clodagh ran very well for silver in her first try at senior level, with a newcomer from United Striders AC, Nicola Murphy, running a tremedous race to claim the bronze medal. It's great to see new names on the medal list at the highest level in the county.
Croghan won gold in the team competition thanks to the efforts of Clodagh Kelly, Aoife O' Callaghan, Mary Kennedy and Niam O' Donnabhain, Two teams finished on the same amount of points for second so the silver medal came down to countback (which comes into play when teams are tied on the same number of points and sees the team with the highest-placed last scorer winning the medal) and it was United Striders in silver and SBR in bronze.
Then it was onto the mens race, which saw 58 runners on the start line and it was also run in wet conditions, but this didn't deter reigning champion Ger Forde of Slaney Olympic AC from blasting out from the gun and taking no prisoners as he blitzed around the two-lap course to run a quick time of 31-19 for the ten kilometre distance, thus running a much faster time than when he won the gold in this very same race two months ago, on the same course.
Niall Sheil of St Killians AC raced with the chasing bunch and came away over the final couple of kilometres to claim silver, with Enda Cloake of Slaney Olympic AC in the bronze medal position (tremendous recovery considering he had finished second five days earlier in the Wexford marathon in 2-45).
It was extremely tight for the team competition, with the result going to countback (which comes into play when teams are tied on the same number of points and sees the team with the highest-placed last scorer winning gold). It was a jubilant United Striders who came out on top from Slaney Olympic - this was a tremendous result for the New Ross team, as rumour after the race had it that it was the clubs first time winning this road title in more than thirty years. And it was richly deserved as their scoring athletes ran strongly and packed very well, with Aeden Rogers, Paul Doran, Brendan Lyng and Joe Lillis the scoring foursome. Slaney Olympic have formed a very strong senior team again, following a few quiet years at this level, so it's great the quality in the county is improving the whole time. SBR emulated their female clubmates by claiming bronze also.
So that's the Wexford championship road season wrapped up for 2019 and attention now moves to track and field, with the first of two senior T&F evenings taking place on Wednesday July 10th at the sports hub in Enniscorthy. There will be events for all, whether sprinters, middle distance, long distance, jumpers or throwers, so please make every effort to come along and compete on the night. We will have all the info and schedules on this website closer to the time.

It was extremely tight for the team competition, with the result going to countback (which comes into play when teams are tied on the same number of points and sees the team with the highest-placed last scorer winning gold). It was a jubilant United Striders who came out on top from Slaney Olympic - this was a tremendous result for the New Ross team, as rumour after the race had it that it was the clubs first time winning this road title in more than thirty years. And it was richly deserved as their scoring athletes ran strongly and packed very well, with Aeden Rogers, Paul Doran, Brendan Lyng and Joe Lillis the scoring foursome. Slaney Olympic have formed a very strong senior team again, following a few quiet years at this level, so it's great the quality in the county is improving the whole time. SBR emulated their female clubmates by claiming bronze also.
So that's the Wexford championship road season wrapped up for 2019 and attention now moves to track and field, with the first of two senior T&F evenings taking place on Wednesday July 10th at the sports hub in Enniscorthy. There will be events for all, whether sprinters, middle distance, long distance, jumpers or throwers, so please make every effort to come along and compete on the night. We will have all the info and schedules on this website closer to the time.

WEXFORD SENIOR ROAD RACE CHAMPIONSHIPS THIS COMING FRIDAY IN MURRINTOWN
The 2019 County Wexford senior road race championships take place this coming Friday evening in Murrintown (June 16th). Pictured to the left are the one-two-three from last years senior mens race - from left to right: silver medallist Niall Sheil (St Killians AC), gold medallist Ger Forde (Slaney Olympic AC) and bronze medallist Paul Lynch (Sliabh Buidhe Rovers AC).
This is the third consecutive year that Wexford Marathon Club have hosted these particular championships - many thanks to the club for facilitating Athletics Wexford with this. Two years ago they used a course in Barntown, while last year they moved to Murrintown and this year sees the club use the very same course in Murrintown.
For anyone who didn't compete last year or who wasn't there on the evening, here are the course routes on ''mapmyrun'' links:
Ladies 5km course: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/2548710874
Mens 10km course: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/2548712818
The ladies from SBR will be doing registration on the evening in Murrintown community centre from 6-30pm - it's €5 per athlete to compete and all runners must be registered members of an AAI Wexford athletics club. Everyone of senior age are entitled to compete, no matter what medals they have won at county, provincial, national or international level.
The ladies race will be first off at 7-30pm and will be 5km, which sees competitors start outside the community centre before taking in a one-lap loop of the Murrintown area, before finishing just below the community centre.
The mens race will follow when the final lady has finished and it is scheduled with an approximate start time of 8pm, but please be aware the race may go off a few minutes earlier depending on the finish times of the ladies. The men will start below the finish line and then complete two laps of the course the ladies have competed over, before using the same finish line.
Please note it's four to score on both a ladies club team and a mens club team, so if possible get out and run for your club, as even if you don't score you could be making a difference in terms of pushing a scoring member of another club back a place.
Wexford Marathon Club are kindly providing refreshments in the community centre afterwards.
The results of both races will be published on the evening of the race on various forums, from Athletics Wexfords facebook page, to their website and we will also put the results up on this website.
Best of luck to all competing and if you can't run please come out to support you fellow club members as this is always one of the hardest fought races of the year, both female and male.

2019 SBR SUMMER LEAGUE IS ONLY 2 WEEKS AWAY
The annual SBR Summer league is just around the corner, with the five-race series kicking off on Wednesday June 19th in Gorey.
Registration for the league takes place on the night of the first race and it's only €10 to enter the whole league - it is open to anyone new to running or looking to join a club at some stage down the line - there is no obligation to join, just come along, run and you can decide at a later date whether club running is for you.
We will be using the 5km course that we have used for the Summer league before - the Ballyloughan circuit that starts at Ballyloughan business park/Redmonds Garden Centre/Murphy liquidation furniture. Registration takes place here and please keep the race number you are given on the night, as it will be the same number for the duration of the league - there's no need to register for any of the other league dates on their respective nights, just run with that number you were given.
The race will start at 7-30pm and proceed up to Kilmurray cross roads, turning right here and proceeding over the M11 flyover, before passing down by Gorey Rugby Club/Naomh Eanna GAA Club and down Clonattin, turning right at ''The Bridge Bar'', over past ''The Ashdown Park Hotel'', before turning right onto the Arklow road and proceeding back out on the hard shoulder to finish at ''The Transport Café''.
We hope to see a large turnout of new faces and SBR members on the night.
For any further info please contact us via facebook (SBR AC) or send an email to web@sbrclub.com.
ARKLOW 5K FOR €5 - SUNDAY JUNE 30TH 2019
The 5k for €5k road race, fun run and walk is back for its second year, following on from the tremendous success of last years inaugural event in Arklow, Co. Wicklow. The event is on Sunday June 30th at 10am and online entry is available on popupraces' website, while on the day entry can be done from 8am on the morning of the race at race HQ.
Although this is a race that takes place in County Wicklow, one of the main organisers is SBR member Claire Gibbons (along with the staff in the Arklow branch of AIB), so it would be great to see a good turnout of Wexford runners and walkers, as the event is just over the Wexford/Wicklow border and is staged for a great cause - Arklow Cancer Support Group.
The event starts and finishes outside the groups centre on St Marys road in the middle of Arklow town - this is where such great work is carried out on a daily basis.
The route goes over the Navvy bridge, before going up past Arklow GAA club, turning onto the Coolgreany road, taking a right-hand-turn at the roundabout at the top of main street before coming up past Tesco, taking a left at the roundabout and proceeding down over the Navvy bridge once again to finish back at the cancer support centre. Although there are some drags along the way it is actually quite a fast 5k route with a good fast finish.
There is plenty of extra info on the facebook page and popupraces' website.
All support would be greatly appreciated.

RESULTS OF RUN WITH RAY FOR 5K - SUNDAY MAY 26TH 2019 - CRAANFORD
Below please find the results from todays Run With Ray for 5k road race, fun run and walk that took place in Craanford in north Wexford.
There were 360-plus entries on the day and we have listed the first 200 finishers, so if anyone who walked the race wants to get a time please get in touch with us through SBR ACs facebook page.
It was an exceptional turnout for this annual event, which brings together good club runners and a strong community entry from the area in and around Craanford village.
As ever with this race, the organisers were blessed with a really warm Summers day, although there was a balmy breeze to go along with the bright sunshine.
Freddy Stuk was back to try to break the course record he had set at this event two years and helped in no small part by his training partner Brian Kirwan, who led the Kenyan athlete for plenty of the 5k distance, he gave it his best shot. Freddy came home a good winner of the race, but was outside the record by more than 20 seconds, but this was nonetheless an excellent result, as he has been plagued all year by injury and only made his comeback to racing the previous Sunday when second in the Stoneyford 10k.
Brian Kirwan had an excellent run for second place, while last years winner Myles Gibbons was first SBR man home in third position.
The ladies race produced an impressive winner in the shape of Croghan AC athlete Clodagh Kelly, who has been in tremendous form all year (including winning both the Wexford novice and intermediate road titles). Clodagh started at a fast pace and was soon clear of her female pursuers and she was able to maintain this pace for the duration of the 5km distance to run out a clear winner, in the process agonisingly missing out on the course record bonus, as she in fact tied last years course record set by Anne Gilshinan of Slaney Olympic AC - 18-36.
Lillian Lawless of SBR ran a fine race for second, while another Croghan athlete Anna Bushe claimed third.
The category results are listed below the main results also.
Race organiser Raymond Byrne would like to thank everyone for coming out to support the event and is very grateful to the many people who helped out in the days and weeks leading up to the 5k and those that helped in so many different ways on the day too.

ROUTE MAP FOR RUN WITH RAY FOR 5K THIS COMING SUNDAY MAY 26TH
The Run With Ray for 5k road race takes place this coming Sunday at 2pm in the picturesque village of Craanford, which is just four miles from Gorey town.
Here's a mapmyrun link to the course route: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/2519676187
The race gets underway from Craanford GAA grounds, heading uphill on the Camolin road and proceeding along here for 2km before turning at a cone at Rossminogue and heading back the same way to Craanford. Runners will head downhill through the start line all the way to the bottom of the hill before taking a left over the bridge at ''Cooneys'' pub and completing a lap of the ''V'' here to cross the finish line facing the pub.
Although there are some climbs on the route, it's recognised as a relatively fast course, with a good finish.

COUNTY WEXFORD MASTERS ROAD RACE CHAMPIONSHIPS THIS COMING FRIDAY IN KILMORE
The 2019 County Wexford masters road race championships take place this coming Friday evening (May 10th) in Kilmore village in south Wexford.
Thanks to Kilmore AC for hosting the championships.
Entry will be on the evening, with SBR again acting as senior secretary. The entry fee is €5 per athlete and the races are open to all runners aged 35 and over, who are registered members of athletics club in county Wexford.
The ladies race will be first off at 7-30pm (please note the new start time, to allow athletes travelling long distances on a Friday evening to make it down after work). The ladies race will be over 4km, which sees runners start near Murphys ''Daybreak'' shop in Kilmore village, then continuing through the finish line. The race then goes uphill past Kilmore GAA, continuing up the hill and taking the first left-hand-turn, continuing on the quiet country roads before taking another left-hand-turn to come back to Murphys ''Daybreak'', turning left here, with a flat run-in to the finish line outside Kilmore national school.
Then it will be onto the mens race over 6km, which will start at approximately 7-50pm and which sees runners begin up the hill from Kilmore GAA and complete a little under two laps of the same route as the ladies have previously competed over.
Refreshments will be served after the races and results will be published ASAP that night.
In terms of the teams, it's three to score on a ladies club team and four to score on a mens club team.
Medals will be awarded to the first three in both ladies and mens races, with the categories for both races starting at over-40 - so anyone who finishes outside the top three but first in their category wins the gold medal in that category - there are gold medals to be won in over-40, over-45, over-50, over-55, over-60, over-65 and over-70.

SPEED TRAINING EACH WEDNESDAY EVENING IN FERNS
SBR have started a different form of club training on Wednesday evenings now.
Following on from the Winter league and relays, we have moved to meeting in Ferns centre of excellence. Training starts at 7-15pm and everyone is welcome - just come along, try the type of training we do and there is no obligation to join the club - we are always very welcoming of new members, whether you join now or try out the training for a few nights and then decide you want to be a part of SBR.
There is a place for all levels at this training, whether it's novice runners who are just trying to improve their fitness, or senior athletes getting ready for a big event on the horizon.
Training takes place under the watchful eye (and stopwatch) of club chairman Lukie Kehoe and will consist of a warmup jog, then interval repeats, followed by a warmdown jog. It all takes place on grass so is much easier on your joints than the road.
For more info contact club chairman Lukie on 087-3222914 or club secretary Louise on 086-8276661.

SBR RELAY THIS COMING WEDNESDAY EVENING IN FERNS
The SBR relay will take place tomorrow evening in Ferns (Wednesday March 27th).
We have made out teams with everyone who is available to run, but if you would like to participate and be put on a team please contact our club secretary Louise on 086-8276661. It would be great to see new faces, who want to try out club running in a friendly competitive atmosphere.
This will be great training and a good social evening of running, as it's warmup jogging, then the relay and then a cooldown jog.
The format will see the first runner on each team starting at 7-15pm and racing over a lap of the ''V'' - from Ferns castle back to the castle. Then each runner will hand over to the next person on their team who will again race over the one lap from castle to castle. This will continue, with each team member completing a lap of the ''V'' until it comes to the final leg runner, who will be the first athlete that had started the relay for their particular team, meaning that they will have completed two laps in total, rather than the one lap completed by everyone else on the team.
Individual runners will not be timed, rather the team overall, so get out and give it your best go for you respective team.

RESULTS OF WEXFORD INTERMEDIATE ROAD - SUNDAY MARCH 24TH 2019 - BALLYMURN
Slaney Olympic played host to the Wexford intermediate road race championships in Ballymurn this afternoon and it was a great day of running, with two good races taking place.
Conditions were excellent for running, with hardly any wind and a very bright, slightly coolish day greeting the athletes.
The ladies were first off, tackling the 4km distance and recent Wexford novice winner Clodagh Kelly from Croghan AC again turned on the style, running out a very clear winner of the intermediate title. Novice bronze medallist Katie Gregan of the host club improved a position to take silver today, with Alex Donohoe of Menapians AC coming through to take the bronze medal.
Croghan packed incredibly well (all six of their entered athletes were in the top eight) and not surprisingly were resounding winners of the team competition, with Slaney Olympic taking silver and a rejuvenated Menapians AC taking bronze.
The mens race was next up, with runners covering 8km. A fast start from SBRs Dara Cloake saw him a clear leader through the finishing line with a circuit to cover. However, this fast early pace took its toll on the leader, as Dara faded to sixth. The group that had been content to sit off the pacesetter came through well over the second half of the race and the battle for the gold medal came down to the duo of Alex Williams and David Mahon.
Alex, who had been a very impressive winner of the Wexford novice recently, and David (who has been competing very well in recent Wexford races and is a new member to Slaney Olympic) had a terrifice dual, with Alex just managing to find the better sprint close home to add the intermediate title to his novice crown. Brian Maher of Croghan was a fine and clear bronze medallist.
The team title was won quite convincingly by Slaney Olympic, with Sliabh Buidhe Rovers AC taking silver and Croghan winning bronze.
Many thanks to everyone who helped make todays event such a great success, in particular Slaney Olympic for hosting the championships and all who provided refreshments for the gathered ensemble afterwards.
Pictured above is the SBR ladies team who competed this afternoon.
The next championship event on the model county calendar will be the masters road races - the date for this event is to be reviewed at the next county board meeting which is on in early April, so we will have all details up here as soon as they are confirmed.

Registration for the intermediate will be open on the morning of the races in Ballymurn community hall from 11am - it's €5 to enter and all athletes must be a registered member of one of the AAI clubs in Wexford. The criteria for competing as an intermediate are as follows (in accordance with Athletics Wexford bye-laws):
1. Any athlete who has not finished 1st, 2nd or 3rd in any previous intermediate championships or better in Wexford or any other county or region.
2. Scoring members of the winning intermediate team are still eligible provided they have not won any greater individual medal.
3. Athletes will automatically be regraded to intermediate following 3 full years out of intermediate provided they have won anything greater in that period in Wexford or another county. An athlete can only be regraded once.
Therefore, Athletes who won individual medals in 2016 are not eligible until 2020 as per clarification at AGM.
The ladies race will be first off at 12 noon - please note it's approximately a one mile jog from the community hall to the ladies start. The distance for intermediate ladies is 4km and the course will be run anti-clockwise.
The mens race will be off then, with the distance being 8km - again the men will have approximately a 2km jog to the start from the community centre - the course for this race will be run CLOCKWISE and will consist of an approximate lap and a half loop.
Anyone who ran the Wexford intermediate road races in Ballymurn last year will be familiar with the courses used, as this years event will use exactly the same routes as in 2018. The finish line for both races is at the national school, which is just 200 metres from the community hall. There is plenty of parking around the village.
It's four to score on both a ladies and mens intermediate club team.

Therefore, Athletes who won individual medals in 2016 are not eligible until 2020 as per clarification at AGM.
The ladies race will be first off at 12 noon - please note it's approximately a one mile jog from the community hall to the ladies start. The distance for intermediate ladies is 4km and the course will be run anti-clockwise.
The mens race will be off then, with the distance being 8km - again the men will have approximately a 2km jog to the start from the community centre - the course for this race will be run CLOCKWISE and will consist of an approximate lap and a half loop.
Anyone who ran the Wexford intermediate road races in Ballymurn last year will be familiar with the courses used, as this years event will use exactly the same routes as in 2018. The finish line for both races is at the national school, which is just 200 metres from the community hall. There is plenty of parking around the village.
It's four to score on both a ladies and mens intermediate club team.
Slaney Olympic will be putting on tea and refreshments in the community hall after the races. Best of luck to all athletes competing and looking forward to a great afternoons competition.
RESULTS OF ROUND 7 OF SBR WINTER LEAGUE - WEDNESDAY MARCH 13TH 2019
The 2019 SBR Winter league came to a very successful conclusion last Wednesday evening in Ferns and it must be said that this has been one of the most competitive and social leagues that the club has organised in many years.
We have had great racing each week and Wednesdays one mile was no different, with a tightly fought battle for the win and some fast times in behind too. Conditions weren't ideal for the mile, with a cold headwind hitting runners twice on the circuit of the ''V''.
Myles Gibbons just managed to get home ahead for first place ahead of Martin Monaghan who had a great league and is back in fine form.
Ciara Bowe was first lady home and ran a fine time, managing to finish ahead of a number of decent male athletes.
Special mention also to leading junior Joe Byrne, who made a very welcome first appearance at an SBR club league and it was great to see him holding his own against our leading senior runners.
We have listed the full results below, while the team competition went down to the final night also, with Myles Gibbons' team edging it overall. Even though Wednesday nights race was the seventh race of the league, it was the sixth round that counted to overall league standings, as the first night was a race organised to allocate runners to teams on a fair basis relative to current form.
We must thank everyone who helped out at the league and many thanks to those who organised refreshments in ''The Thatch'' after the race.

Ciara Bowe cemented her win in the league last time by again getting the better of Lillian Lawless in the ladies section, but no doubt there will be little between the pair over the coming weeks.

REPORT AND RESULTS FROM 2019 WEXFORD NOVICE ROAD - SUNDAY FEBRUARY 25TH
|
|
The Mr Oil Wexford novice road race championships took place in Rathgarogue today and what a brilliant afternoon of competition it was - there was a tremendous turnout of both athletes and supporters for the first road championship race of the season, making for some extremely hard fought battles and an excellent atmosphere.
Many thanks to all in United Striders A.C. for pulling out the stops to put on an excellent event, which was based around the community hall in Rathgarogue - they provided lots of help, from event setup to lots of stewarding and the much appreciated refreshments afterwards. The ladies race over 3km was first off at 12 noon, with a large entry of 47 women toeing the start line. Pre-race favourite, Clodagh Kelly of Croghan A.C. who has been in excellent form for the last few weeks, went straight to the front and never relinquished the lead, coming home a clear winner from Ruth O' Connell of Wexford marathon club, a fine second, with Katie Gregan of Slaney Olympic in third place. Croghan A.C. won gold in the team race, thanks to the efforts of the race winner, fourth placed Suzanne Keane, 11th placed Shelly Atkins and 18th placed Ailish O' Connor. Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. won silver, while United Striders A.C. won bronze. In the mens race over 6km, a very hot pace ensued from the start, with Alex Williams of Croghan and Dara Cloake of SBR sharing the lead ahead of a trio of Liam Turner (DMP), James Boland (US) and Will Doyle (SO). With two and a bit laps to cover, the pace never relented and it was Alex Williams who made his move halfway through the final lap, coming home a good novice winner from Dara Cloake in second and Will Doyle, who timed his run to perfection taking the bronze. In the team race, it was Slaney Olympic who took the title thanks to Will in third place, Jessie O' Connor in seventh, Billy Reck in eight and Padraig Coone in 13th. SBR took silver, while Croghan bagged bronze.

ROUND 4 RESULTS OF SBR WINTER LEAGUE - WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 13TH 2019
The fourth round of the SBR Winter league took place in Ferns last Wednesday evening - this was the third leg that counted towards league team standings.
Again there was a good turnout of runners, with brilliant competition for places and times taking place all the way through the field.
It was the one mile race this week, which encompassed almost a lap and a half of the ''V'' and it saw Paul Lynch back on the winning trail in the mens division, while there was a titanic battle for the ladies win, with Ciara Bowe just shading it over Lillian Lawless, great running by the two women.
There was a change in team standings at the top though, but with 11 points only separating the first four teams, the race for top team could go any way over the next few weeks.
Well done to everyone who fielded out on the night - it even though it was cold, it was the mildest evening thus far in the league.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE WILL BE NO LEAGUE THIS COMING WEEK (WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 20TH) DUE TO THE GOREY NIGHT RUN TAKING PLACE ON THE THURSDAY EVENING AND THE WEXFORD NOVICE ROAD RACES TAKING PLACE ON THE SUNDAY. THE LEAGUE WILL RECOMMENCE ON WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 27TH WITH A TWO MILES RACE.

TWO MILES RACE FOR SBR WINTER LEAGUE THIS COMING WEDNESDAY
Round 3 of the SBR Winter league takes place this coming Wednesday evening in Ferns - it's two miles this week for everyone, with the race starting at 7-15pm.
We had a great response to the start of the team competition last Wednesday evening, with nearly 40 runners battling it out over the one mile distance, so we really want to see everyone come back and field out for their team again this week - every place can count when it comes to scores, so whether you're up front or further down the field, keep battling as you could be pushing a scoring member of one of the other teams back a place.
The race will get underway from Kavanaghs funeral home and then cover two and a half laps of the ''V'' (up the hill by the church three times) to finish on the square outside Ferns castle.
If you want to come run the league, but haven't registered yet, please come along on the night and you can run the race but won't be included on a team, but you will be in the results for the race.
For further info about the league please contact Lukie on 087-3222914 or Louise on 086-8276661 or email us on web@sbrclub.com.

RESULTS OF ROUND 2 OF SBR WINTER LEAGUE - WED JAN 30TH 2019
The second round of the SBR Winter league took place in Ferns this evening, with the temperature reading zero degrees. However, the one mile race took place in calm conditions, with no wind, much to the relief of the runners who raced.
A large field of 35 faced the starter, with everyone gunning for a fast time over this classic distance. A frantic early pace saw Paul Lynch, Niall O' Connor and Tomás Kavanagh all vying for the lead, closely followed by Martin Monaghan.
There was little let-up in the pace, with Paul Lynch running strongly over the almost lap and a half of the ''V'' to win in a time of 4-57. Tomás Kavanagh kept going strongly for second, with Denis Moynihan sprinting through late for third.
Lillian Lawless ran a great time in the ladies section, making it two out of two for the league.
There was great excitement both before and after the race, due to the team competition, so make sure to tog out for your team each week, as every place could count over the course of the five weeks.
Many thanks to the helpers who stewarded and took times etc tonight - the weather was extremely cold for running, never mind helping, so it's much appreciated.

RESULTS FROM FIRST ROUND OF WINTER LEAGUE - WED JANUARY 23RD 2019
The SBR Winter league kicked off in great fashion last night, with a healthy entry for the first evening of competition.
The weather was extremely cold, but thankfully there was no wind and the rain also held off too.
Athletes battled it out over two and a half laps of the ''V'', which saw them crest the hill up by the church three times, and there was some great competitive running.
The ladies were first off, with Lillian Lawless running out a wide margin winner. There was some close running in behind though, with the third to sixth runners having precious little between them, so there are bound to be some great battles over the coming weeks.
Then it was onto the mens race, which saw Myles Gibbons back to winning ways following a few weeks out with injury. There were a number of personal bests run by those following him, great to see the progress lads, keep it up.
Next weeks league will be over the one mile distance, details to follow in a few days.

REPORT AND RESULTS OF WEXFORD MASTERS AND JUNIOR XC 2019
Kilmore A.C. hosted the last county cross country championships of the season at a very bright Lingstown this afternoon and there was some great competition.
Once the juvenile relay races had been completed it was onto the junior and masters races, with two very decent sized fields togging out for both the ladies and mens races.
The course had been altered slightly from previous masters/senior editions, with runners not venturing into the marshy land at the bottom of the field where the cars accessed the venue. This resulted in a lap of almost a mile which took in mainly flat terrain and encompassed pretty much three fields. Conditions were extremely dry underoot, but there was a stiff headwind for athletes to face once they turned away from the Celtic Sea.
The junior girls and master ladies raced together in the first event, with 42 runners completing the 4km course. It was great to see a number of juniors in among the vets. Fiona Kehoe of the host club made her intentions clear from the start, racing away from many-times champion (and clubmate) Jackie Carty, and this was to be the finishing order, with the pair comfortably clear of Catherine Roche of Slaney Olympic who was a fine third. Not surprisingly, Kilmore were team winners following the runs of the gold and silver medallists, and in unison with Helen Doyle (back from a long break through injury), they were clear team gold victors.
Our own ladies from SBR ran well for silver, thanks to fine efforts from Ciara Bowe, Lillian Lawless and Belinda Kehoe. We also had Orla Furlong and Mairead O' Neill in action, well done to all.
The junior men also raced with the masters men and this resulted in an intriguing battle up front, with star junior Aeden Rogers of United Striders taking on Niall Sheil of St Killians. Although they were running in different categories (within the one race), there was no quarter given, with the pair well aware of one anothers presence. It was Niall who was to come across the line first this time, making his decisive move on the final lap of four, with Aeden a fine second. There was an equally hard-fought battle going on in behind, as Pat Foley of Croghan had a career-best run to see off Joe Lillis of United Striders for third place in the race and second master across the line.
United Striders won gold in the team competition, but not without being put to the pin of their collars by an ever-improving Croghan - Joe Lillis, Alan O' Connor, Brendan Lyng and John McGrath being the scorers for US and Pat Foley, Brian Maher, Mark Poole and Alex Williams being the four who counted for Croghan.
Below are the unofficial results from todays races (please note that the junior athletes are included among the masters) - Athletics Wexford will publish the full official results over the next few days, along with times and category winners.

REPORT AND RESULTS FROM 2018 WEXFORD INTERMEDIATE XC
- SBR played host to the Mr Oil Wexford intermediate cross country championships today in Ferns.
On what was a relatively mild day for early December, the underfoot conditions were quite fast which made for competitive racing. However, the main obstacle in both races was the big hill, the ladies having to climb it three times during their 4km race and the men coming up it six times in their 8km race.
The ladies set off at 12 noon, with only ten runners toeing the line and the race quickly developed into a three-athlete contest between Beth O' Connor, Lillian Lawless and Angie Redmond. Second time up the big hill saw the real turning point of the race as Angie Redmond accelerated past her two rivals, quickly opening a ten seconds gap. Hard as the other two ladies tried to close the gap, it was in vain as Slaney Olympic athlete Angie quickened up the hill again for the final time to win the intermediate title in good fashion, thus doubling up her championship gold medal haul after winning the Wexford novice cross country title in Adamstown two months ago. Beth O' Connor rallied well up the final hill for silver and led her United Striders team to gold medals, being well backed up by Sonya Byrne, Anastasia Cash and Aine Cullen. Lillian Lawless finished in the bronze medal position.
Then it was onto the mens intermediate race, with 31 athletes facing the starter. There was a large lead group up until the halfway point but from here the race began to develop into a dual between Brendan Lyng and Mark Poole. It was nip and tuck over the next two laps, with both runners looking comfortable and moving with ease. Croghan athlete Mark was the first to make a move across the bottom of the course for the final time and from here there was a great dual to the line. However, it was to be Mark Pooles day as he maintained a strong pace all the way to the line, with the four second winning margin at the finish being the biggest gap between the pair at any point of the contest. There was an equally intriguing battle going on a little bit further back as a number of athletes had a go at winning the bronze medal. It was Paul Doran who was to bag the bronze, as he ran a perfectly judged race, coming from way off the pace to pick his way through the field and pass a large number of runners.
It was also a tight race for the team title, with United Striders justifying their favourites tag but not without a stern test from a well-organised group of Croghan athletes. Brendan Lyng, Paul Doran, George Delaney and Sean Murphy were the gold medal scorers for the New Ross team.
Thanks so much to Vesty O' Neill for the use of his lands at Newtown, Ferns. Pictured above are the SBR athletes who competed in todays races, along with club chairman Lukie Kehoe.

FINAL DETAILS FOR TOMORROWS INTERMEDIATE XC IN FERNS
Here are the bare final details for tomorrows (Sunday December 2nd) Wexford intermediate cross country championships:
The event takes place at Newtown, Ferns, which is approximately half a mile from Ferns village (just off the Carnew road).
Parking will now be on the roadside (as the planned parking in the stubble field is inaccessible due to all the rain of the last week). Please follow the stewards directions in terms of parking on the road.
The event gets underway at 12 noon with the ladies 4km race, followed immediately by the mens 8km race. The ladies will cover three laps of the course, while the men will cover six laps. Both races will start near the top of the course, with the finish area being the same for both races, and also being sited at the top of the hill.
Even allowing for the good draining nature of the course, the race field is in remarkably immaculate condition, with no muck, but athletes would still be advised to wear spikes.
At the moment, the forecast looks favourable, with a cloudy, slightly breezy day predicted and while there is a chance of showers, it certainly won't be heavy rain.
We look forward to seeing a large crowd out both running and spectating - very best of luck to all competitors from all Wexford clubs.

SBR HOST 2018 MR OIL WEXFORD INTERMEDIATE XC THIS SUNDAY
The Mr Oil County Wexford intermediate cross country championships take place in Ferns this coming Sunday and SBR are looking forward to welcoming everyone to our course at Newtown, Ferns.
The event will take place in the same field as was used for the 2017 Wexford senior and uneven-ages juvenile cross country championships, but for anyone not familiar with the location or who weren't there that day, here are some directions:
At the top of Ferns village, take the Carnew road beside Doyles pub, continue down this road for approximately a quarter of a mile, then keep to the left at the Y in the road (the right-hand-turn will take you for Carnew), then continue up this road for approximately another quarter of a mile and the parking field will be located beside the road, on the left-hand-side. The cross country course is located directly beside the car park.
This course is known for being exceptionally well-draining, so even with all the rain we have had this week, underfoot conditions should still be very good.
The ladies intermediate race will be first off at 12 noon, with the ladies covering 4km, then it's onto the mens intermediate 8km contest.
Entry to the venue will be five euro for everyone and those competing are encouraged to let senior county secretary John Joe Doyle know before the day about your intention to run, as this will speed up registration on the day - if you're running as an individual contact John Joe or if part of a team get your club secretary to contact John, John Joes email address is jjdoyle@eircom.net
All competitors must be a member of a Wexford athletics club and you are eligible to run intermediate once you haven't won an individual medal (gold, silver or bronze) at senior level - those who have medalled individually at intermediate level are eligible to compete once that season is over two years ago.
In terms of placings for clubs, it's four to score for both the ladies and mens teams, so get out and run for your club - club colours must be worn.
Pictured above is last years intermediate winner Enda Cloake of Slaney Olympic A.C. (photo credit) - this race was acutually held in January of this year due to it being postponed in 2017.

ADAMSTOWN AC TO HOST LEINSTER CROSS COUNTY ON SUNDAY NOVEMBER 11TH

The days action is being jointly staged by Adamstown A.C. and the county board of Athletics Wexford. Every athletics club in the county is expected to provide at least two helpers at the event - please note that Athletics Wexford have pointed out that these helpers will be situated around the race field, so won't miss out on any of the race action, as Adamstown A.C. are providing the stewards for the car parks.

REPORT ON COUNTY WEXFORD SENIOR CROSS COUNTRY 2018
We are currently waiting on Athletics Wexford to publish full results from yesterdays County Wexford senior cross country championships that took place near New Ross.
United Striders A.C. did a great job hosting the event, which was held in the glorious surroundings of JFK Arboretum, which looked resplendant in the Autumnal sunshine that mirrored a Summers day.
The uneven-ages juvenile programme took place before the senior races and there was a great turnout for these under-age races, well done to all the youngster competing - the results and race reports can be found on the Athletics Wexford website.
The ladies 5km race was the first senior championship race and from the start it was the defending champion Fiona Kehoe who took no prisoners as she set a searching pace and had full intentions of burning off her rivals from early on. It was many times former champion Jackie Carthy who gave valliant chase to her Kilmore A.C. teammate, but there was no stopping Fiona, as she came home a comprehensive winner in an excellent time of 18-50. The ever-reliable Ann Sullivan of DMP came home in the bronze medal position and it was later to transpire that she had led DMP team to a terrific gold medal in the team competition. This was quite a surprise, as Kilmore have been unstoppable in this category for a long number of years and it rounded off an excellent week following the DMP mens gold-medal performance the previous Sunday at the Wexford novice xc. The scoring foursome for DMP were Ann, novice road winner from the Spring Katie Wilson, the returning to action Mary Sinnott and Christine Stone.
Kilmore took the silver medals, with the four scorers being Fiona, Jackie, Fidelma Rossiter and Sinéad O' Brien.
Our SBR ladies put in a terrific performance to win bronze medals in the team race, with Ciara Bowe being our first scorer as she had an excellent run to pick her way through the field en route to a great sixth place. Then we had Belinda Kehoe, who finished the race in great fashion and looks in top shape for her first attempt at the Dublin marathon in two weeks time. The ever-dependable Lillian Lawless was next home,with Christine Hill rounding out the scoring foursome with a battling run. Great going ladies, well done.
Then it was onto the senior mens 10km race and this proved an excellent event.
Defending champion Ger Forde of Slaney Olympic A.C. was fully expected to defend his crown succesfully and using his trademark trail-blazing tactics, he soon had the field well-strung out. However, Niall Sheil of St Killians A.C. and junior star Aeden Rogers of United Striders were never too far away and gave good chase throughout. Ger put up a great performance to cross the line in front again, with Aeden coming home very strongly to claim a brilliant silver medal on his senior cross country debut. Niall filled the bronze position, completing a top-class podium.
The team race always promised to be very tight and this proved an understatement, with one point eventually separating the first two teams.
Not surprisingly this website are delighted to report that it was the SBR mens team who claimed the gold medals by the single point from United Striders and we are more than happy to add that this gold medal equalled the long-standing record held by Leevale A.C. in Cork, of nine consecutive senior county mens cross country titles.
Needless to say it was a hard-earned win and this team competition led to one of the most exciting races within a race for years. The scoring members of the SBR team were led home by Paul Lynch in fifth position, with Pedro Calvo not far behind in seventh, then Denis Moynihan, followed by Noel Kennedy, Myles Gibbons and Paul Gibbons.
United Striders team consisted of Aeden Rogers, Brendan Lyng in a brilliant fourth, John McGrath, Paul Doran, George Delaney and Séan Murphy.
Our SBR ''B'' team pulled out all the stops too and were rewarded with the bronze medals. The team consisted of a number of athletes who have scored on our gold medal senior winning teams over the years, showing the strength in depth of the SBR squad. The scoring members of this bronze medal team were Lahcen Aouissar, who travelled from Dublin to compete in his first race of any kind in two years, Trevor Conroy, Tomás Kavanagh, David Leonard, Jim O' Malley and Patrick Curley. We also had Tommy McElwain, Bernard Fortune and BIlly Harpur running well on the day too.
Well done to all the athletes who competed on the day and massive thanks to all the supporters from SBR and the various clubs who travelled to cheer on the runners, your energy was much appreciated by all competitors. Also a big appreciation to the SBR ladies who provided much needed refreshments after the races, which brought the athletes back to life.

COUNTY WEXFORD SENIOR AND UNEVEN-AGES JUVENILE XC IS ON THIS SUNDAY
The County Wexford senior and uneven-ages juvenile cross country championships take place this coming Sunday October 14th in New Ross.
This is one of the biggest days of the year on the Wexford athletics calendar and we are expecting some great competition in the manicured grounds of JFK Arboretum.
United Striders A.C. kindly play host to the event, which gets underway from 12 noon, when the juvenile programme will kick off proceedings.
The senior races have an approximate start time of 2pm, but please note they will not start before 2pm.
The ladies race will be first off from 2pm, with the distance being 5km and then it's onto the mens 10km.
We encourage as many athletes from as many different clubs as possible to tog out for the senior races, as this is the day that everyone is qualified to compete, no matter what grade you have run at, or whatever championship medals you have won.
In terms of team competition, it's four to score on a ladies team, while it's six to score on a mens team.
Pictured above is the one-two-three from last years Wexford senior cross country race in Ferns - from left to right: second home Niall Sheil, winner Ger Forde and third-placed Enda Cloake.
In terms of this years races, Fiona Kehoe will bid to add yet another Wexford title to her list of senior cross country wins, with former also-multiple winner Jackie Carty and last years runner-up Ciara Wilson appearing her main threats, although there are some up-and-coming names that would get into the mix should they enter on the day. Kilmore A.C. are red-hot favourites to retain the team title, as apart from the aforementioned Fiona and Jackie, the club has numerous other very talented athletes who are capable of being close-up scorers on the team.
United Striders, SBR, Slaney Olympic, DMP and Croghan are all likely to field strong teams, so there should be great team competition.
Best of luck to all the ladies competing and hopefully we will see a healthy turn-out of teams to battle for silverware.
In the mens race, Ger Forde of Slaney Olympic A.C. will deservedly be expected to repeat his win from Ferns a year ago, when he saw off the previous years victor (from Kilrane) Niall Sheil of St Killians A.C.
Ger has been in excellent form during the year and will bid to repeat his 2017 performance of winning both road and cross country in Wexford, as he has already won the 2018 road during the Summer in Murrintown. A 15-24 recently for 5k in Rathfarnham should have brought him to peak condition for Sundays race
However, there is a younger band of athletes appearing on the scene, who can be expected to figure very prominently, with last years bronze medallist Enda Cloake of Slaney and junior Aeden Rogers of United Striders A.C. showing terrific form this year and they will no doubt not be too far off Ger and Niall.
Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. attempt to equal Irish history on Sunday in the team competition, as should they prevail, it would equal the nine-time consecutive tally of county cross country titles that Cork club Leevale A.C. hold.
United Striders A.C. will no doubt be out in force to bring the run to a halt, so some great battles are expected throughout the field on the day. Slaney Olympic, Croghan, DMP and others are expected to field strong teams also too.
Entry to the venue will be €3 and anyone who can't run on the day should come along support.

KILMORE 10K TAKES PLACE THIS COMING SATURDAY
The next big event on the County Wexford calendar is the Kilmore 10km road race that takes place this coming Saturday, September 15th.
The race will mark the 85th anniversary of Kilmore A.C. and will also honour the memory of the late Toddy Moore, who passed away earlier this year and who was a stalwart of club, county and national athletics.
This years event sees the addition of a fun two miles race being held at 5pm, then the main 10k race will start at 5-30pm.
All details can be found on Kilmore ACs facebook page or on their website https://kilmoreathleticsclub.wordpress.com/
The 10k race starts in Kilmore village, taking in the Bridgetown townsland, the roads around Ballycross Apple Farm and finishing back in Kilmore village outside the national school. This is an excellent route, with the hills being very short and runnable and taking place on nice quiet country roads.
Kilmore A.C. always do a great job organising this event, so it would be great to see a big turnout from Wexford clubs and beyond.

ST PAULS A.C. STAGE KILRANE 5 MILER THIS COMING SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 2ND
Our friends in St Pauls A.C. are staging their annual road race in Kilrane, near Rosslare harbour next weekend and it would be great to see a large turnout from the other Wexford athletics clubs and beyond.
The five miles road race takes place on Sunday September 2nd at 11am, starting and finishing in Kilrane village.
Registration takes place from 10am on Sunday morning in Kilrane community centre, with the race getting underway a short jog away on the main Wexford road.
The course, while it's not pancake flat, is a relatively fast circuit - here's a link to the route: www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/2217412483
Refreshments and prizegiving takes place afterwards back at Kilrane community centre.

OYLEGATE HALF MARATHON AND 10K IS ON THIS COMING SUNDAY
The Oylegate half marathon takes place this coming Sunday (August 26th).
The event has become a tradition on the last Sunday in August and thankfully not even the Popes visit to Dublin this Sunday necessitated a change of date.
The mornings action will also feature a 10km race.
Athletes from AAI clubs in County Wexford should note that the half marathon also incorporates the county half marathon championships, which should be keenly fought for, as a number of Wexfords leading runners are going well at long distance presently. All info can be found on the events Facebook page, but here's a brief overview of the event:
Registration is available online on www.popupraces.ie or on the morning of the event. Race HQ is Oylegate/Glenbriens GAA grounds, which is located a little over a mile from Oylegate village (turn at ''The Slaney Inn'' in Oylegate).
The course for the half sees the race starting near Oylegate and taking in a little more than two laps of the route that the 10k race will cover - it's a very fair course with lots of good running and only a couple of relatively small drags. The half gets underway at 10am (walkers are off at 9am), with the 10k off at 10-30am.
The race is famous for its selection of refreshments and home baking afterwards, which are served under the grandstand at the GAA pitch, just after the finish line, and the prizegiving also takes place here.
Best of luck to all competing on the day.

ST PATRICKS GAA 5KM FOREST TRAIL RACE IS ON THIS COMING SUNDAY
The by now-annual and well established St Patricks GAA forest 5k trail race takes place this coming bank holiday weekend in Camolin woods and it looks set to be a good event again.
Some of our SBR club members are involved in the organisation of this race, so naturally we are encouraging as many runners, walkers and joggers as possible to take part in the race.
Entry to the woods and race venue will be well-signposted on the morning of the event, but for anyone coming from the Gorey direction, drive into the middle of Camolin village and the road leading into the woods is located on the right-hand-side, between the petrol pumps and Church Of Ireland chapel. Parking will be available approximately one mile down this road, with registration, race start, race finish and refreshments/prizegiving area all located within a short walk.
The 5km race takes place over very easy trail and is basically very flat, with a small couple of slight inclines en route.
All up to date info can be found on CLG Naomh Padraigs facebook page.

JIM CARTON MEMORIAL RACE IS ON THIS COMING SATURDAY
This Saturday (July 7th) sees the annual Jim Carton memorial race taking place in Ballyfad, near Gorey.
The event takes place in July of each year to commemorate the memory of the late UN veteran and fitness legend who was native to this area of north Wexford and who passed away in 2013.
It would be great to see a large crowd take part, as Jim was known near and far due to his passion for sport and fitness and years of service both at home and overseas with the Irish army and UN missions to Congo, Cyprus and Lebanon.
There is a fairy walk in Ballyfad woods for families, which starts at 3-30pm and will take approximately half an hour.
Then it's onto the main event with the 7km race starting at 4-30pm
This years event sees a new route, with the race starting at the school in Ballyfad village, proceeding back towards Kilanerin, before turning left down the new line, taking another left into Ballyfad woods and proceeding through the woods, before coming back out onto the road at Ballyfad bridge and coming up the hill into Ballyfad village, to finish at the school again.
This is a much less hilly route than has been used in previous years, although it has to be said much to the disappointment of plenty of previous competitors who had enjoyed the challenge of the very scenic course around Croghan.
Entry is ten euro per person. Organisers have published the following: ''This year the proceeds will go towards the rebuilding of Ballyfad hall, our starting point and tea point each year, and we know this would make the man himself happy.....After much deliberation we have decided the run will not be as torturous this year but will take a less uphill route! So no excuses even for a novice runner not to throw on their trainers and get involved..''

PLENTY OF RACES TO CHOOSE FROM THIS WEEKEND IN COUNTY WEXFORD
|
|
There's a very busy weekend ahead of fun runs and road races in County Wexford, so there's no excuse if you're looking for an event to test yourself in.
On Friday evening, the Slaney Olympic Summer series kicks back into action after a months hiatus, with The Still five miles road race taking place near Enniscorthyat 7-30pm. Slaney Olympic A.C. have full details on their website and facebook page. On Sunday, there's a large choice in the county, with three events taking place. The 5km race in Ferns and the 5km race in Wexford town both have the same start time of 11am, while the Glynn 5km race starts at hour later at midday. The Ferns race is in aid of Tombrack national school, who are in the process of officially opening their new astroturf pitch and all support would be greatly appreciated. Anybody who has competed in races in Ferns over the years will be familiar with the course, which takes in a lap of ''stump'', starting and finishing on the square at Ferns castle (registration and refreshments will be in Ferns national school on the main street). The race in Wexford town is in aid of Gaelscoil Charman and is in its second year. Registration and refreshments take place at St Josephs community centre in Bishopswater, Wexford town and the race also starts and finishes here, taking in a 5km in the general surroundings of Wexford park GAA grounds. The Glynn race is in aid of Glynn national school and is the only race on Sunday with an AAI permit. Full details are on facebook, but the race gets underway from the school, before taking in a lap of the Glynn/Killurin areas. Registration is in Glynn parish hall and parking can be had at Glynn Barntown GAA grounds. Best of luck to everyone competing over the weekend, whether it's in these races in County Wexford or further afield. |

SUMMARY OF WEXFORD MASTERS ROAD IN FERNS
A gloriously sunny Summers Friday evening in Ferns greeted runners and supporters alike for the county masters road races last night and what a successful event it was. We will be publishing the full official results on this website once Athletics Wexford have released them, but there was a fantastic entry for both ladies and mens races, with a total of over one hundred athletes toeing the line between the two contests.
The ladies were first off, with the race starting at Ferns GAA grounds and taking in a route over the ''stump lane'' course. Jackie Carty of Kilmore A.C. took no prisoners and came home a wide margin winner, great running by the ever-reliable Jackie. In behind there was a brilliant battle going on for second place and in a sprint to the line, Jackies Kilmore teammate Helen Doyle managed to sprint past Catherine Roche of Slaney Olympic A.C. close to the finish to secure the silver medal.
Kilmore A.C. ran out team winners thanks to the aforementioned duo along with Fidelma Rossiter.
Then it was onto the mens race, with the race starting out on the main Enniscorthy road and proceeding into the village to cover a full lap of the ''stump lane'' circuit. The 6km distance started at a very steady pace, with the race only getting going from the halfway mark and it was United Striders A.C. who totally dominated the finish, taking the first four places. Alan O' Connor continued his tremendous run of form, taking gold, with Joe Lillis having a great run to secure silver and then there was a very lively battle for bronze, with Brendan Lyng just eding past John McGrath in a very late surge for the third spot.
Needless to say, United Striders ran out very clear winners of the team title, finishing with a perfect first-four-quartet of runners.
Many thanks to everyone who helped out on the night, ensuring the smooth and safe running of the championships. Well done to all the athletes and thanks also to the supporters for such a good atmosphere around the finish area. Everyone enjoyed the refreshments afterwards in the community centre, thanks to those who supplied and served these.

RACE INFO FOR WEXFORD MASTERS ROAD RACE CHAMPIONSHIPS
The County Wexford masters road race championships take place this coming Friday evening (June 8th) in Ferns, with Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. playing host.
Race HQ for the event will be the community centre in Ferns, which is located on main street, just up the road on the right-hand-side from the roundabout at the catholic church. There is plenty of parking around the village, whether it's in the church car park, on the street, in the estates around the village or on the the square at Ferns castle (although please note that this is the finish area for the races, so some parking restrcitions will be in place here).
Registration will take place in Ferns community, with entry fee being €5 per athlete - only registered AAI members of athletics clubs in County Wexford are permitted to compete and they must be 35 years or older.
The ladies race will be first off, with a start time of 7-30pm and please note that the start line is located 1km outside Ferns village, with the ladies lining up on the road just past Ferns GAA grounds (there is parking here if anyone would like to avail of it). The race will be 4km, which sees the ladies take a left-hand-turn down the Ballycarney road relatively shortly after the start. Before the first kilometre marker, the race will again turn left onto the ''stump'' lane, continuing down here until emerging on the N11 at Lodgewood and continuing back in the hard shoulder. At the funeral home in Ferns, athletes will turn left and head towards the finish line which is located at Ferns castle.
Once the final lady has finished, the mens 6km race will start. Once again the start line is located 1km from the finish area, but this time the men will line up on the main Enniscorthy road, near Dwyers chimney cleaning and continue back in the road, turning left at the funeral home, taking a left at Ferns castle and continuing out into the countryside. After 2km has been completed, the men will pass the start line for the ladies race and will then run exactly the same 4km route the ladies have run to finish out their 6km race.
It's three to score on a club team in the ladies race but it's four to score on a team in the mens race, so get out and run for your club.
Refreshments will be served in the community centre after the races and SBR are looking forward to welcoming a large crowd to Ferns, whether it's to compete or cheer on your clubmates.

RUN WITH RAY FOR 5K IS ON THIS COMING SUNDAY
The annual ''Run With Ray for 5k'' takes place this coming Sunday (May 27th) in Craanford at 2pm.
Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. will again be helping out at the race and we will have the full results on this website after the event - SBR member Raymond Byrne is the organiser of the race.
The event takes place in the picturesque village of Craanford, which is only four miles from Gorey in North Wexford.
Registration is ten euro and is in Craanford community centre.
The race gets underway just up the road from the community centre, with the start line on the road outside Craanford GAA pitch. The race will proceed up the hill towards Camolin and runners will turn in the road after approximately 2km and run back the way they have come. When they pass the start line, the race will continue down the hill and continue past Cooneys pub, taking a left just after the bridge and taking in a lap of the triangle around the scenic park on the edge of Craanford, finishing close to Cooneys pub.
This is widely known as being a fast course, as although there are some hills on the route, the overall profile shows more downhill than uphill (due to the start and finish lines being in different locations). Here's a ''Map My Run'' link to the course map: www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/2074366162
There will be a well-earned cup of tea or coffee along with lots of homemade refreshments after the race on the green outside Cooneys pub, along with music and the prizegiving will also take place here. There is a very generous prize fund on offer for this 5k, with the first lady and man home getting €100 each, the seond lady and man getting €75 and the third lady and man getting €50. Added to this there is a bonus on offer if the course records are broken - both the first lady and first man to break the current records will get an extra €100 (ladies record is 18-56, which was set by Dena Hogan and mens record is 15-06, which was set by Freddy Sittuk).
Trophies for the winners of the following categories:
1st Over-40 Male & Female
1st Over-50 Male & Female
1st Over-60 Male & Female
1st Over-70 Male & Female
1st Under-16 Boy & Girl
Looking forward to seeing another large turnout in Craanford on the day.

report from 2018 wexford senior road races - murrintown - fri may 18th
The County Wexford senior road race championships took place in bright sunshine last night in Murrintown - many thanks to Wexford Marathon Club for hosting the event on Friday May 18th 2018.
It was a great evening of athletics, with two large fields contesting the ladies 5km and mens 10km races and plenty of battles taking place throughout both events.
The ladies were first off at 7pm and Fiona Kehoe put up a very strong performance to run away from her rivals. The Kilmore A.C. athlete came home a wide margin winner (in a time of 18-04) to add to her long list of county titles and she is in super shape for the Summer ahead. A great battle ensued for second place between the two DMP A.C. athletes, Ann Sullivan and Katie Wilson. It was Ann Sullivan who got the better of her much younger rival to lift the silver medal, great running by the pair, and lots of encourgement for the future from last weeks novice winner Katie, as she claimed bronze here.
Not surprisingly with their scoring foursome in the top seven, the team competition saw Kilmore A.C. claim the title, with Fiona Kehoe, Elaine Cardiff, Sharon Clancy and Helen Doyle being the scoring four. Slaney Olympic A.C. won the silver medals and SBR A.C. won the bronze. It was great to see so many ladies fielding out.
The mens race took place over two laps of the course that the women had raced over (with the start being further back down the road to make up the distance, but the finish being in the same place).
From the outset, defending champion Ger Forde (Slaney Olympic A.C.) set a searching pace and had the field well strung out. Niall Sheil (St Killians A.C.) put up a valliant chase over the course of the 10km and the pair had the race for the win to themselves. Ger kept the strong tempo going and crossed the finish line in a highly impressive 32-49, especially considering the stiff uphill section on each lap. Niall was a further twenty seconds back in silver position and Paul Lynch of SBR ran a highly creditable race to claim bronze.
Paul Lynch led SBR to gold medals in the team competition, where along with Myles Gibbons, Paul Gibbons and Noel Kennedy, they got the better of United Striders A.C. and Slaney Olympic.
One of the largest fields for the senior mens road race in a few years togged out, which was very encouraging.
Everyone returned to the community centre afterwards for well-earned refreshments - thanks to WMC for putting these on.
The next championship race in the county will take place in three weeks time, when SBR will host the masters road races on Friday June 8th in Ferns - we will have all the info on this website closer to the time.

GREAT RACING AT 2018 NOVICE ROAD IN CAMROSS
The County Wexford novice road race championships took place in Camross last night and it was a great evening of running.
Following a wet morning and early afternoon, the weather really took a turn for the better and bright sunshine greeted runners and spectators as proceedings got underway at 7pm.
There was a good field for the ladies novice race over 3km, with a fast start ensuring a spread out on the field from the start, with Mary Gorham (Slaney Olympic A.C.) and Sandra Young (United Striders A.C.) racing ahead.
It was all change once the athletes came back into view with 400m to go though, as Kate Wilson (DMP A.C.) had made her way through the field and ran away to be a very impressive winner of the gold medal. Mary Gorham battled well to win the silver medal, while Emer Quintero (Croghan A.C.) sprinted home to claim the bronze medal.
Slaney Olympic won the team competition, with United Striders in silver position and Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. taking the bronze.
Then it was time for the mens race over 6km, with another large field togging out. United Striders athletes were certainly to the fore here, with George Delaney leading home a one-two for the club on home ground, as he won the gold medal from Martin Mizgajski in silver. There was a good battle for third place then, with Croghans William Keogh staying strong over the last 600m to win bronze ahead of SBRs Dara Cloake.
The team competition was won by United Striders, with SBR in silver and Slaney Olympic in bronze.
Many thanks to United Striders for putting on the race and the much-appreciated refreshments in Camross hall afterwards. We will put a full list of results on this webpage as soon as they are made official by Athletics Wexford.
Pictured is the bronze-winning ladies team from SBR.
Here are the provisional results as published by Athletics Wexford:
Ladies 3km novice road race:

Following a wet morning and early afternoon, the weather really took a turn for the better and bright sunshine greeted runners and spectators as proceedings got underway at 7pm.
There was a good field for the ladies novice race over 3km, with a fast start ensuring a spread out on the field from the start, with Mary Gorham (Slaney Olympic A.C.) and Sandra Young (United Striders A.C.) racing ahead.
It was all change once the athletes came back into view with 400m to go though, as Kate Wilson (DMP A.C.) had made her way through the field and ran away to be a very impressive winner of the gold medal. Mary Gorham battled well to win the silver medal, while Emer Quintero (Croghan A.C.) sprinted home to claim the bronze medal.
Slaney Olympic won the team competition, with United Striders in silver position and Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. taking the bronze.
Then it was time for the mens race over 6km, with another large field togging out. United Striders athletes were certainly to the fore here, with George Delaney leading home a one-two for the club on home ground, as he won the gold medal from Martin Mizgajski in silver. There was a good battle for third place then, with Croghans William Keogh staying strong over the last 600m to win bronze ahead of SBRs Dara Cloake.
The team competition was won by United Striders, with SBR in silver and Slaney Olympic in bronze.
Many thanks to United Striders for putting on the race and the much-appreciated refreshments in Camross hall afterwards. We will put a full list of results on this webpage as soon as they are made official by Athletics Wexford.

UNITED STRIDERS A.C. HOST THE 2018 WEXFORD NOVICE ROAD THIS FRIDAY EVENING
The County Wexford novice road race championships take place this coming Friday evening (May 11th).
United Striders A.C. are hosting the event, which will take place in Camross. Registration for the races will be in Camross hall, which is located just off the main N25 road from Wexford to New Ross - coming from the Ferns/Enniscorthy direction, take the exit off the ''Maldron Hotel roundabout'' signposted for New Ross and Camross is approximately seven miles out this road, signposted to the right. The entry fee is five euro per runner in each race and there will be four scoring members on all ladies and mens team. Athletes are eligible to compete once they are members of an AAI-affiliated Wexford club and have not won an individual (gold, silver or bronze) at novice level or higher. Please note that winning a team medal does not count. United Striders have publised the course maps for each race (the novice ladies course is pictured to the left and the novice mens course is picutred to the right) - each race starts a short jog from Camross hall, with the finish for both races being outside the hall. The ladies 3km race gets proceedings underway at 7pm (Athletics Wexford have advised that the start time may be delayed if clubs make it known that their athletes are tight on time getting down due to traffic/work committments). Once the final lady has finished the novice mens 6km race will take place. Good luck to all on the evening - SBR would also like to wish John Joe Doyle and Kathleen Keane (both from DMP A.C.) the best of luck in their debut outing as the new secretary and assistant secretary of the senior section of Athletics Wexford. |

RESULTS FINAL ROUND OF SBR SPRING LEAGUE WED APRIL 11TH 2018
The SBR Spring league came to a conclusion tonight, with a 5km race taking place around a lap of ''the stump'' in Ferns.

The Spring league has drawn on weeks past the anticipated finish date due to some very wintry weather over the course of the event and tonight again proved a very chilly evening. with runners also having to battle into a strong headwind back in the main road.
Paul Lynch continued his winning streak, by leading from the start and coming home a clear winner, while Christine Hill was first lady home and in the process she posted a fine new PB for the distance. Well done to everyone else, who togged out on the night.
The prizegiving for the league took place in ''The Thatch'' after everyone had enjoyed refreshments.
Many thanks to everyone who helped out during the league, from the timekeepers to those in the lead cars, the league couldn't take place without ye.

WEXFORD CHAMPIONSHIP ROAD RACE SEASON WILL GET UNDERWAY NEXT MONTH
Following last nights county board meeting of Athletics Wexford (Wednesdy April 4th), a full schedule for the upcoming championship road race season has been agreed on.

On recommendation from John Joe, It was agreed at the county board meeting that a different club will take on the role of county secretary for each calendar year, so DMP A.C. are in charge for 2018.

SPRING LEAGUE IS 5KM THIS WEDNESDAY EVENING
The fifth round of the SBR Spring league takes place this coming Wednesday evening (March 28th).
The difference with the league this week is that it will be run in daylight, as the club had to cancel races for three consecutive weeks due to the bad weather - we would normally be finished the Spring league by now, with the races all taking place around the ''V'' under lights, but with the clocks going forward and the 7pm starting time now being in daylight, we will be staging the race around the ''stump lane'' circuit.
Both ladies and men will compete together in the one race, which will be 5km in distance - it starts on the edge of the square in Ferns, going out past the GAA pitch, turning left for Ballycarney, turning left again down the stump lane, emerging onto the main road at Lodgewood and continuing back on the hard shoulder before turning left at Kavanaghs funeral and finishing on the square at Ferns castle.
We encourage all members of SBR or anyone interested in trying out club running for the first time to come along - we will be on the square from 6-30pm on Wednesday evening.

RESULTS OF ROUND 4 OF SBR SPRING LEAGUE - WEDNESDAY MARCH 21ST 2018
Well done to everyone who competed in last nights round four of the SBR Spring league and thanks to the helpers on the night.
It was a case of fourth week lucky, as we had to postpone the previous three Wednesday evenings due to the weather, but thankfully we had a calm dry evening for running, albeit a little on the cold side.
The junior and ladies were first off, with Darragh Breen and Belinda Kehoe again winning the junior and ladies races respectively, well done to both on such fast times. There were lots of good performances in behind, great going ladies and a good way to shake off the cobwebs following the weather-related break.
The mens race was next off and Paul Lynch set a searching pace from the start and he came home a clear winner in a quick time. In behind it was great to see Pedro Calvo back running so well with the club, as he is not long back from living in Seville. Well done to the rest of the men that fielded out too.
We will have the 5km distance for the league next Wednesday evening.

NOVICE ROAD RACE CHAMPIONSHIPS ARE CANCELLED
NEWS AS OF THURSDAY MARCH 15TH:
Unfortunately, we have news of another cancellation and this is a very significant one as Athletics Wexford have announced this morning that the County Wexford novice road race championships that were due to take place in Camross this coming bank holiday Monday have been cancelled.
It is due to the ongoing situation of a new senior county secretary not being in place. It was hoped that the position would have been filled by the deadline of yesterday evening at 5pm, but as yet, there has been no interest, so the board of Athletics Wexford have stood firm by the action that was agreed at the last county meeting to postpone both the Wexford novice and intermediate road race championships.

SBR SPRING LEAGUE POSTPONED AGAIN TONIGHT FOLLOWING THE SNOW
Unfortunately, tonights (Wednesday) round of the SBR Spring league has had to be postponed in the aftermath of the snow. The snow and ice on the paths around the ''V'' in Ferns have been slow to thaw and have not been cleared in parts, making it dangerous to hold the mile races. Hopefully it'll be third time lucky next week, as we aim to hold the one mile races next Wednesday (March 14th).
BOTH RACES IN CO WEXFORD THIS SUNDAY POSTPONED DUE TO SNOW
The two races in County Wexford this weekend have both just been postponed due to the weather. Wexford is due to be hit by heavy snow over the next day or so, and with the courses likely to be unraceable for a number of days, the events were postponed early due to health and safety.
The 5km race in Craanford (near Gorey), which was to bring Operation TransFORDmation to a close on Sunday afternoon, has been postponed, it was announced on their Craanford Sports Complex facebook page on Thursday morning. We will have details of when the event will be rescheduled for, as SBR were to help out with the timing for the race.
The 5km race around the Old Dublin road in Enniscorthy has also been postponed on Sunday, according to the facebook page of the organisers, Friends of St Patricks Special School. An alternative date will be announced soon.

NEWS UPDATE - TONIGHTS LEAGUE IS CANCELLED
Unfortunately, this evenings SBR ''Spring'' league has been cancelled due to the weather conditions. Ferns has been hit particularly hard overnight by the snowy conditions, with the top part of the ''V'' affected in particular, as both the paths and road are icy and snow covered around the Ferns castle area, making it unsafe for travel or running. Hopefully weather permitting, the league will continue next Wednesday evening.
ONE MILE RACES FOR LEAGUE THIS WEEK
The fourth round of the SBR Spring league takes place tomorrow evening in Ferns (Wednesday February 28th). Temperatures are expected to be literally freezing for the one mile races around the ''V'', but at the moment it looks like we will be able to hold the league without the snow blizzards that are anticipated for Thursday, but we urge anyone interested in taking part to check this website or our SBR AC facebook page through Wednesday for updates.
The junior and ladies one mile race will get underway at 7pm from the square outside Ferns castle (taking in a lap and a half of the ''V'' to finish at the graveyard), then it's straight onto the senior mens one mile race. For further info contact Lukie on 087-3222914 or Louise on 086-8276661.

RESULTS OF ROUND 1 OF SBR SPRING LEAGUE - WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 7TH 2018
Well done to everyone who fielded out for the first round of the SBR Spring league on Wednesday evening in Ferns. It was a bitterly cold night for running (or indeed for taking the times and helping out!), so many thanks to everyone who turned up. We had two separate races, with the juniors and ladies first off, then the senior men. Darragh Breen ran a solo to win the junior race, with Belinda Kehoe coming in behind him to win the ladies section, great running by the pair. Well done to all the other ladies and welcome to the new club members who togged out for the first time, great to see.
The mens race saw Paul Lynch bounce out and show no ill effects from a strong run in the Dungarvan ten miler last Sunday, as he led the whole way to run out a convicing winner, great to see Paul back in such good form. Well done to all the rest of the men, it's a great start to the league and great training for challenges to come.
Next week sees us tackle the one mile distance, with the races starting on the square from 7pm - come along and give it a bash.

PROVISIONAL RESULTS FROM JUNIOR, INTERMEDIATE AND MASTERS XC
Well done to everyone who togged out for this afternoons Wexford junior, intermediate and masters cross country championships that took place after the juvenile relays programme had been completed.
Conditions underfoot were very soft, with lots of standing water on the track, but many thanks to Menapians A.C. for hosting the event and for having the track in such good condition considering the copious amounts of rain that had fallen over the last few days.
The ladies race over 4km was first off shortly after 1pm, with 31 ladies completing the course. A great race ensued up front, with the Menapians junior Roisin O' Reilly taking the fight to many times senior and masters champion Jackie Carthy of Kilmore A.C. The ladies had to run a course consisting of three large laps and one small lap to finish the race and this pair of athletes were clear of the rest of the field throughout.
Roisin O' Reilly was an extremely impressive winner of the junior ladies championship, clocking an unofficial time of 19-30 for the race.
Jackie Carthy was an equally clear winner of the ladies masters title, covering the course in an unofficial 19-56.
Kilmore A.C. were winners of the team title, with the club having a one-two-three home, thanks to Jackie winning, Helen Doyle in second and Fidelma Rositier in third.
The SBR ladies had a great afternoon. In the masters race, SBR won silver behind Kilmore A.C., following the performances of Ciara Bowe (fifth), Belinda Kehoe (sixth), Lillian Lawless (ninth) and Marie Kirwan (18th). Ciara Bowe and Lillian Lawless both won gold in their age categories.
In the intermediate race, Belinda Kehoe won silver for SBR. The SBR ladies also won intermediate team silver thanks to the efforts of Belinda, Emma Morris, Marie Kirwan and Lisa Prendergast Murphy.
Then it was onto the mens race over 6km, which consisted of four big laps and a small lap to finish with. There was a large field, with approximately 60 runners competing and a very strong race to ensue.
Tom Hogan of SBR made his debut in the masters ranks a winning one, as he really opened up over the second half of the race to run out a clear winner of the title by 30 seconds from Niall Sheil (St Killians A.C.) in second place. A great battle took place for the third spot, with John McGrath of United Striders A.C. eventually getting better of a tightly-knit group.
SBR won the masters team title, thanks to Tom winning the race, Joe Lillis in eight spot, Myles Gibbons in tenth and Paul Lynch in 11th.
SBR also had Noel Kennedy, Bernard Fortune, Adrian Doyle, Niall O' Connor, Brian Kearney, Pat O' Neill, Pat Kirwan, Tom Kavanagh, Stephen O' Leary and Billy Harpur in the master race, well done to all. Unofficially, Tom Kavanagh won gold in the over-70 category.
In the intermediate race, there was strong competition for the title. A number of athletes were bunched together for most of the race, with Enda Cloake of Slaney Olympic A.C. running out the winner, closely followed by Pat Foley of Croghan A.C. in second and Alan O' Connor in third.
Unofficially, the team title went to Slaney Olympic A.C. (Enda Cloake, Davy Kehoe, Brian Maher and Billy Reck), from United Striders A.C. and Croghan A.C.
The SBR mens intermediate team finished fourth overall, following the efforts of Joe Lillis, who was fifth intermediate, then Bernard Fortune, Tomas Kavanagh and Adrian Doyle.
Niall O' Connor, Brian Kearney and Pat Kirwan also competed in the intermediate.
It was great to see a large entry of junior men take to the start line among all the intermediate and masters athletes too, and these juniors also completed 6km, with Liam Turner of DMP A.C. continuing his good run of form by running out a clear winner of the title.
Conditions underfoot were very soft, with lots of standing water on the track, but many thanks to Menapians A.C. for hosting the event and for having the track in such good condition considering the copious amounts of rain that had fallen over the last few days.
The ladies race over 4km was first off shortly after 1pm, with 31 ladies completing the course. A great race ensued up front, with the Menapians junior Roisin O' Reilly taking the fight to many times senior and masters champion Jackie Carthy of Kilmore A.C. The ladies had to run a course consisting of three large laps and one small lap to finish the race and this pair of athletes were clear of the rest of the field throughout.
Roisin O' Reilly was an extremely impressive winner of the junior ladies championship, clocking an unofficial time of 19-30 for the race.
Jackie Carthy was an equally clear winner of the ladies masters title, covering the course in an unofficial 19-56.
Kilmore A.C. were winners of the team title, with the club having a one-two-three home, thanks to Jackie winning, Helen Doyle in second and Fidelma Rositier in third.

TERRIFIC PERFORMANCES FROM SBR ATHLETES AT DUBLIN MARATHON 2017
There was a brilliant turnout of SBR athletes at the Dublin marathon on Sunday, great to see so many from the Ferns club covering the 26.2 miles.
There were a number of personal bests and first timers at the distance, while some runners didn't achieve their target times, but it's still an excellent achievement to finish this extreme test.
Pictured to the right is a scene from the first mile of the marathon (thanks to Mairead O' Neill for the image), showing Tomás Kavanagh and Eugene Doherty from SBR among the thousands of runners.
Conditions were excellent for the event, with temperatures in the low teens, no rain and only a slight headwind over the first half of the race.
Many thanks to all the supporters from SBR who travelled up on the day to lend their voices to keep the athletes going, and indeed the other Wexford clubs who gave our SBR runners a shout.
No doubt the bodies will still be aching a bit in the days after the marathon, so it's time to rest up until the training starts again, whether that be for cross country or road races.
The finish times are listed below:
• Patrick Curley 2:53:26...
• Paul Lynch 2:55:59
• Jim O'Malley 2:56:38

2017 WEXFORD SENIOR XC REPORT
It was a terrific day of cross country action in Ferns this afternoon, as Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. hosted the County Wexford senior and uneven ages championships.
Massive thanks to all the volunteers who helped on the day and in the weeks leading up to the event and also to landowner Vesty O' Neill for the race field and car park field.
There was a great turnout for both the underage programme and senior races and as soon as Athletics Wexford release the results officially we will publish them on this website.
In the senior ladies 5km race, last years winner Fiona Kehoe of Kilmore A.C. dominated from start to finish, coming home a clear winner. There was a terrific battle for the silver medal, with Ciara Wilson of DMP A.C. getting the better of former multiple champion Jackie Carty of Kilmore to take second. Not surprisingly, Kilmore won the team prize, thanks to the aforementioned duo and the efforts of Elaine Cardiff who ran very well for fourth and Helen Doyle who was a few places back.
Our own ladies from SBR did the club proud as they came away with the bronze medals. The squad was made up of Ciara Bowe, Lillian Lawless, Belinda Kehoe, Christine Hill, Emma Morris, Clodagh Dunbar, Louise Kehoe, Lisa Murphy and Orla Furlong (who unfortunately had to pull out of the race). DMP A.C. won the silver medals.
In the senior mens 10km race, Ger Forde of Slaney Olympic employed his customary trail-blazing tactics, as himself and Niall Sheil (last years winner of St Killians A.C.) went clear of the pack from start. Ger had a strong run to take the gold medal, with Niall in silver. Further back, Enda Cloake of Slaney Olympic sprang a surprise, as close to the line, he overhauled Tommy McElwain of SBR to claim the bronze medal. This was a great return to form by Tommy and backed up by, Denis Moynihan, Noel Kennedy, Martin Askins, Paul Lynch and David Leonard, the SBR team won the gold team medals for the eight consecutive year, great going lads. We also had Paul Gibbons, Jim O' Malley, Joe Liilis, Myles Gibbons, Brian Kearney, Bernard Fortune, Tommy Levingston and Billy Harpur in action, great to see such numbers in the blue colours.
And that wrapped up the senior, a great day, and thankfully it went off very smoothly before Hurricane Ophelia hits tomorrow. The underfoot conditions were dry, and while there was a decent breeze in the faces of the runners up the hills, thankfully the rain held off.

ALL THE DETAILS FOR SUNDAYS CROSS COUNTRY IN FERNS
The Wexford senior (and uneven-ages juvenile) cross country championships is now only two days away and the following is a full list of the details for the day - SBR looks forward to welcoming a large entry of juvenile and senior athletes, along with parents and supporters, to Ferns on Sunday October 15th. The weather forecast is looking favourable, with Accuweather today (Friday) predicting that Sunday will be cloudy with the chance of a shower, and although it will be slightly windy, we look sure to finish the event long before Hurricane Ophelia possibly hits Ireland late Sunday into Monday.
The field for the cross country is located at Newtown, Ferns - take the Carnew road out of Ferns square (the road beside Doyles pub), continue up this road for a quarter of a mile and instead of veering to the right for Carnew, bear left in the direction of Askinamoe. The cross country field is a quarter of a mile up this road on the left-hand-side. We will have the venue signposed from Ferns.
The afternoons action will get underway at 11-50am, with a non-championship race for under-9s - the distance will be 500m. We have set up a loop at the top of the field for the juvenile programme (check out the map of the course at the top of this webpage to familiarise yourself with the layout of the field and courses - thanks to Liz Bolger for this) and this loop is one kilometre in distance - a track has been cut in the grass and there is only a gentle gradient on the course, which specifically cuts out the big hill at the bottom of the field for the juvenile programme.
Please note that you will be entering the field between the points marked on the map as mens and ladies starts - parking will be in the field just off the road before this point.
The championship juvenile programme is listed below (please note that the under-11s, under-13s and under-15s race starts half way around the juvenile loop to make up the correct distance, meaning that the under-17s and under-19s start adjacent to the finish line, as the distances for these races see the athletes race over full continuous laps - every race will finish at the same point at the top of the field):
12 noon - Girls under-11 1500m
Boys under-11 1500m
Girls under-13 2500m
Boys under-13 2500m
Girls under-15 3500m
Boys under-15 3500m
Girls under-17 4000m
Boys under-17 5000m
Girls under-19 4000m
Boys under-19 6000m
Once the juvenile programme has finished, the senior races will take place, but please note that the ladies race will not start before 2pm.
The ladies will cover 5km, which will see them cover three and a half laps of the course that runs against the ditch of the whole large field (meaning that the ladies have to climb the hill four times) - the lap measures almost 0.9 miles in length.
The mens race is scheduled for 2-30pm, but this obviously depends on the ladies race having finished. The difference between the ladies and mens races is that in covering their 10km distance, the men will run up and down the sides of the ditch that runs up the middle of the field, thus making the lap a fair bit more than one mile around - this sees the men covering five and a half laps (and climbing the hill by the ditch and the big hill six times).
The juvenile section of SBR will be providing a shop on the day, where it will be possible to purchase teas, coffees, cakes, sandwiches, crisps etc.

DIRECTIONS TO THE FIELD FOR SUNDAYS CROSS COUNTRY IN FERNS
Here's the directions to the field which will stage this coming Sundays Mr Oil County Wexford senior and uneven-ages cross country championships:
In Ferns village, once you're on the square outside Ferns castle, take the Carnew road out of the village (this is located beside Doyles pub, which is pictured), proceed out this road for a quarter of a mile and veer off to the left (this is the Askinamoe road) instead of turning to the right for Carnew. Continue up this road for a little over a quarter of a mile and the field is located on the left-hand-side - this is the townsland of Newtown. There is a short narrow laneway into the field.
If you're feeling energetic and would like to jog the kilometre out to the field here's a mapmyrun route to the course from Ferns castle: http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/1788550592

MAP OF COURSES FOR THIS SUNDAYS BIG CROSS COUNTRY IN FERNS
Many thanks to Liz Bolger from the juvenile section of Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. for the map of the courses for this coming Sundays Mr Oil County Wexford senior and uneven-ages cross country championships that will take place at Newtown, Ferns.
The action gets underway at 11-50am with a non-championship under-9s race, then it will be straight into the juvenile championship programme, followed by the senior races.
As can be seen on the ma supplied by Liz, there are two routes - a short loop for the juvenile races (which is marked out with a black line and black arrows and which cuts out the worst of the big hill) and then the larger loop for the senior races (which is marked out with the red line and red arrows, which takes in the big hill, but also a smaller hill up one side and down the other side of the ditch in the middle of the field). The big hill for the senior races is approximately 400m long and while it's steep it's nothing that seasoned runners or those competing in races every Sunday won't have tackled countless times, so don't let that put anyone off togging out!
We would like to say a massive thanks to Vesty O' Neill for the use of his land and for preparing the field and entranceway for the cross country.

SENIOR XC AND DUBLIN MARATHON JUST AROUND THE CORNER
Not surprisingly this is a very quiet weekend on the race front in County Wexford - due to the Wexford senior cross country championships taking place on Sunday week in Ferns, most senior athletes will be completing their preparations for the big race, while most of those readying themselves for the Dublin marathon at the end of the month will be having their last long run this weekend before beginning the marathon taper.
SBR are proud to be hosting the blue ribbon event of the County athletics calendar and we will have full info about the Wexford senior (and uneven-ages championships) on this page over the next week, so keep an eye on the website for full info.

BRILLIANT BRONZE MEDALS FOR SBR LADIES AT NOVICE XC
Well done to everyone who competed at the first day of the County cross country championships in New Ross last Sunday.
The weather was very kind on the day and despite plenty of rain beforehand, the course was in great condition.
There were a large number of SBR juvenile athletes in action before the novice races got underway, with plenty of good performances and medals won, well done to the youngsters in blue.
The SBR novice ladies team put in a great performance on the afternoon, as they won bronze team medals in the 3km Wexford novice championship race. Christine Hill led the ladies home, followed by Orla Furlong, Louise Kehoe and Clodagh Dunbar. Lisa Prendergast Murphy also ran really well on the day, just missing out on a team place. We don't have exact placings yet as official results haven't been published by Athletics Wexford, but it was a well-earned award behind gold medal-winning Slaney Olympic and silver medal-winning United Striders.
The novice men were next up, but SBR were out of luck, as although the quartet of Tomas Kavanagh, Adrian Doyle, Ian McQuillan and Paul Deegan battled well, the team finished outside of the medals in the 6km race.
Well done to everyone and thanks to all the supporters who made the trip to JFK Arboretum. We now look forward with anticipation to the senior cross country championships which will be held on home ground in Ferns in two weeks time. The day also incorporates the Wexford uneven-ages championships, so it is sure to be an action-packed afternoon at the new course on the Askinamoe road.

NOVICE AND EVEN-AGES GET WEXFORD XC SEASON UNDERWAY THIS SUNDAY
The start proper of this years cross country championship season is upon us, with the first day taking place this coming Sunday (October 1st) in New Ross.
United Striders A.C. will play host to the novice and even-ages championships in the terrific venue that is JFK Arboretum, and great credit must go out to the ''Striders'' for once again securing this fantastic venue on behalf of Athletics Wexford. There is loads of car parking in the all-tarmac designated parking areas, with a very short walk into the plush grassy grounds of the Arboretum, where the action will take place.
Please make sure to come early so as to register in plenty of time and get a good warm up in, as the day will be busy, with lots of races taking place and an extremely large entry of athletes expected.
Athletics Wexford have released their itinerary for the day, which is set out as follows:
11-50am - Under-10 NON-CHAMPIONSHIP RACE
12 noon - Juvenile championships get underway with the programme as follows:
Novice ladies 3000m (please note that this race will not start before 2pm, even if juvenile schedule is ahead of time)
Followed by novice men 6000m
An athlete is deemed novice if they have not won an individual medal at a higher grade (ie - intermediate or senior). Any athlete who won an individual medal at the novice road race races in Spring are eligible to run (even if they have medalled at a higher grade) as novice status is based on the calendar year (ie - the whole of 2017). Winning a team medal this year or any other year does not disqualify you from novice grade.
Getting to the venue is quite easy, although it is a 15 minutes drive from New Ross town itself. If coming from the town centre, follow the main N25 road out of the town (as if heading for Wexford town) and before the Brandon House Hotel, turn to the right to take the R733. Follow e R733 until you see signs to the left for JFK Arboretum and the venue is a short distance up this road.
We look forward to a great day of action and best of luck to all who will be competing.

START OF CHAMPIONSHIP XC SEASON IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER
The start of the cross country championship season is now less than two weeks away, so we will have full details of the first fixture (the Wexford novice and even-ages championships in New Ross) on this website next week. Training is in full flow in various fields around the county, so we're looking forward to another great day of action.
In the meantime, for anyone who wants a blow-out or who isn't doing long runs as part of their marathon preparation, there is a big road race coming up in Wexford town this Sunday (September 24th) - the Ben 5k will take place at 10am (full info can be found on their website www.ben5k.com). This event was a tremendous success when it took place two years ago, raising a large amount for a great charity. Best of luck to all.

KILMORE 10K THIS COMING SATURDAY EVENING
This is a race not to be missed!!!
The Kilmore A.C. 10km road race has it all - a really well organised event, one of the best 10k courses in the country, a great spread of refreshments and excellent prizes, not to forget that the sun always shines in Kilmore!
This coming Saturday evening sees the annual staging of this great club race, so be sure to either enter online or be there early to enter on the day. And if you're training for an Autumn marathon why not come along, do a good warmup, race the 10k and do a good warmdown to get a long run with a difference done.
Looking forward to seeing a large turnout from both inside and outside County Wexford.

ADAMSTOWN OPEN CROSS COUNTRY THIS COMING SUNDAY
Next Sunday (September 10th) sees the start of the cross country season with the annual Adamstown open meeting taking place.
This is always a good starting point for athletes to get a taste of racing on the grass after a long Summer of road races and there is something for everyone, with open races for juveniles, juniors and seniors alike, with the distances being a bit shorter to help athletes ease into the Autumn/Winter season.
The event takes place in the field directly opposite the church in the middle of Adamstown village, so why not come along and get your eye in before the cross country championships start in a few weeks time.

KILRANE 5 MILES ROAD RACE THIS COMING SUNDAY (sEPT 3RD)
Our friends in St Pauls A.C. are staging their annual five miles road race in Kilrane village (near Rosslare Harbour) this coming Sunday morning at 11am. This is always a very well-organised event, so it would be great to see a large representation from Wexford clubs (and further afield) in the race. The race takes place over a very fair course, which is relatively flat, so why not take a drive to a lovely part of County Wexford, get a good run in before relaxing to watch the All-Ireland hurling final in the afternoon.
SBR TRAINING FOR XC SEASON BEGINS!!
It's that time of year again!! Now that the evenings are getting a little bit shorter, our attention turns to preparation for the upcoming cross country season.
Official club training for Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. will take place each Tuesday and Thursday evening. Meet on the square outside Ferns castle at 7pm and we will jog the kilometre out to the training field. Everyone is welcome, male and female, beginners and experienced runners. The evening will consist of steady running to warm up, then some fast sessions and a warmdown jog. Alternatively for anyone trying to build a base, just come along and run some laps of the field to get used to the different terrain - it's an all grass field and has a very good surface, so is very easy on the joints and muscles.
A full list of upcoming Wexford races is available on our fixtures page and this includes the dates for the County Wexford cross country championship races. The season kicks off properly in October, with the novice races taking place on Sunday October 1st in New Ross, but for anyone looking for good race practice, check out Adamstown A.C.s open cross country meeting on September 10th.
For more info, or to see about joining SBR, contact club chairman Lukie on 087-3222914 or club secretary Louise on 086-8276661, or check out SBR AC on facebook.

FERNS 5K FUN RUN/WALK A GREAT SUCCESS
The Ferns 5k fun run/walk was a great success yesterday morning (Sunday July 30th) - many thanks to everyone who supported the event and to the many helpers we had on the day and indeed in the days leading up to the race.
In total there was 130 people who registered for the event, with more than 80 togging out on the morning, many thanks to everyone who entered, it was brilliant to see so many out and in particular plenty of entrants for the keenly contested titles of first Mother/Daughter and first Father/Son home. Pictured to the left are the winning Father/Son team of Andy and Conn Frazer, great going guys.
The race started just outside Ferns GAA grounds, with the finish line being just inside the grounds after everyone had completed a lap of the Stump Lane circuit. We were really lucky with the weather, as the race started in bright sunshine and the forecasted showers only arrived as the final few finishers were making their way back to the GAA grounds in the final kilometre.
The full results are listed below - thanks to all our timekeepers and place takers from Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. for compiling the results - it was a great way of supporting Ferns GAA as they continue their fine development of the club grounds which will see a state of the art clubhouse being finished off over the coming months. There is a good selection of photos from the event on the Ferns 5k fun run/walk facebook page, make sure to check it out.

|
Day 2 of the County Wexford senior track and field championships takes place this coming Wednesday evening (July 26th) at the Enniscorthy Sports Hub.
We are encouraging as many athletes from as many clubs to participate on the evening as there are events to suit all abilities, with a wide range of distances from sprint to middle distance on the track, while the field events also has a range of technical challenges. The evening gets underway with the walks at 6-30pm, so make sure to be there early to warm up even if your event is a little bit later in the schedule. At the first evening two weeks ago, the events were run off very promptly (the action started at 7pm sharp then and finished before 10pm), so make sure to listen to the instruction over the loudspeakers. The full listing of events can be seen in the pictures to the left and above. Best of luck to everyone competing. |
FINAL ROUND OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE THIS WEDNESDAY
The final round of the SBR Summer league takes place this coming Wednesday evening, as we head to the woods in Camolin for a 5km trail race.
This is the same course that St Patricks GAA club have used for their race (which will again take place in a few weeks time) and that we have also used before for last years SBR league. It is a very runnable and beginner-friendly route. The trail is easy and has a very good surface, while it almost flat throughout, so why not come along to get a sighter in ahead of the big St Patricks race.
The race on Wednesday will get underway at 7-30pm and access to the woods is via the roadway which is located between the Church of Ireland and the petrol station in the middle of Camolin village.
Looking forward to a good evenings running!

2017 JIM CARTON MEMORIAL ROAD RACE THIS COMING SATURDAY EVENING
The 4th annual Jim Carton memorial five miles road race takes place this coming Saturday evening in Ballyfad, Co. Wexford. There will also be a family fun walk which is especially suitable for the children, as it will take place in Ballyfad woods and is titled ''Away With The Fairies''.
The road race is run in memory of the late Jim Carton, who was a member of the Irish defence forces and UN veteran. Jim was a legend in the area of fitness and training and passed away in this month in 2013 at the age of 74. Jim served with the Irish army for over 20 years, completing overseas missions with the United Nations to the Congo, Cyprus and Lebanon. Jim was stationed in The Curragh, working in the General Training Depot, before going on to the Military Police and then finally doing physical training with the elite Ranger Wing.
Upon retirement from the army Jim was to become very involved in his native North Wexford, training sports teams for fitness and working as a physical trainer in some well-known gyms.
The five miles race will take place around Jims home area of Croghan Barrack, and just as Jim would have wanted it is a great test of speed and endurance. The race will start in Ballyfad village at 5pm and proceed up Croghan mountain, taking in a lap at the top, before coming back down the hill to finish in Ballyfad again - there is a terrific descent down the hill making the climb up the earlier hills worth the effort. Refreshments will be served in Ballyfad hall afterwards, where prizegiving will also take place.
For anyone not familiar with Ballyfad, it located near Gorey - in Inch, continue to Coolgreany, turning left at the Coolgreany Inn and Ballyfad village is three miles over this road.
Full details can be found on the ''Away With The Fairies'' facebook page or by contacting organiser Tanya Tighe on facebook.
We hope to see a large turnout on the evening to honour Jims memory.

SBR RESULTS FROM OPENING NIGHT OF WEX T&F CHAMPIONSHIPS 2017
The full results from the opening evening of the County Wexford track and field championships have now been published on the Athletics Wexford website. It was a great evening for SBR, with a relatively small but select group of athletes competing for the club and coming away with a number of medals. There was great camaraderie between the clubs athletes and indeed athletes from other Wexford clubs, so we would encourgage even more from Sliabh Buidhe Rovers to take to the track for the second evening later on in July - it's a great chance to race on a proper tartan track and is a great way to see if racing at shorter distances than normal road races suits.
The full results can be found at this web address: http://wexfordathletics.com/mr-oil-senior-wexford-track-field-championships-2017-day-1-05072017/ ,while here are the medal winning performances by SBR athletes:

Emma Morris ran the first leg, handing over to Clodagh Dunbar, who handed to Belinda Kehoe and she passed on to Louise Kehoe who anchored the team to a very exciting bronze medal, just losing out to United Striders for the silver medals.

QUICK REPORT ON OPENING NIGHT OF WEX SENIOR T&F 2017
SBR had a good productive evening at the opening day of the County Wexford senior track and field championships last night at the Enniscorthy Sports Hub. It will take a few days for Athletics Wexford to publish all the results, so make sure to keep an eye on their facebook page and website. Our athletes competed in a large range of distances, varying from the 100m sprint to the 5,000m and we rounded off by fielding teams in both the ladies and mens 4x400m relay - the men had to give best to United Striders A.C. for the bronze medal, but the ladies fared even better, coming away with the bronze medal in a very exciting relay, great going girls!
LARGE SELECTION OF ROAD RACES IN WEXFORD THIS COMING WEEKEND
There is a large selection of road races in Wexford this coming weekend, so there's no reason for anyone not to pull on the runners on either Saturday or Sunday, or both!!
- On Saturday evening, Kilmore A.C. stage one of the most unique races on the circuit as the Kilmore Quay Seafood Festival 5km takes place in the picturesque Kilmore Quay. There will be a kids one kilometre race at 6-45pm, then it's onto the senior races. What makes this event unique is the fact that there is a separate race for ladies and men, with both taking place over a five-lap course. The ladies 5km race will start at 7pm, then the mens 5km race will start at 7-30pm. Refreshments and prizegiving will take place in the Stella Maris centre afterwards.
- Then on Sunday morning, Castlebridge National School will stage a fun run at 11-30am. More info can be found on the facebook page of Castlebridge national school parents association.
- On Sunday afternoon, the ever-popular Run With Ray For 5k takes place again in Craanford (which is four miles from Gorey). Registration will take place in Craanford community centre, with the race getting underway from there at 2pm. The race finishes near Cooneys pub, where refreshments and prizegiving will also take place. There will then be live music and craic there, so as race organiser Raymond Byrne says ''come for the run and stay for the fun''.

GREAT SUCCESS FOR SBR AT WEXFORD SENIOR ROAD 2017
The Wexford senior road race championships took place at a sundrenched Barntown yesterday evening and it was a great night for SBR, with lots of individual and team medals being brought home by the Ferns club.
First up were the ladies at 7pm and the race was highly anticipated due to the unknown nature of the course devised by Wexford marathon club, who hosted their first ever championship races on the evening. The race consisted of a full 5km lap, with the field setting off on the sliproad near the church carpark. There was then a climb of over a mile, before a right-hand-turn to face a sharp downhill. The course then levelled out, before taking a right-hand-turn at Mary Jos pub (where the customers formed the unofficial Athletics Wexford supporters club for both races!!) and a long tramps heartbreak to the finishing line.
Jackie Carthy of Kilmore A.C. really set out her stall from the start, quickly opening up a clear lead and coming home an untroubled winner to add to her multitude of county titles. Behind her, there was a great race going on for second place between Emily O' Connor of Slaney Olympic A.C. and Helen Doyle of Kilmore. Helen produced an excellent finish over the last 400m to overtake Emily and claim the silver medal, great competition between the pair.
There was very encouraging representation from SBR, with six ladies toeing the start line and the club coming away with bronze team medals, great work girls! Lillian Lawless finished fourth, Belinda Kehoe seventh, Emma Morris 15th, Clodagh Dunbar 18th, Lisa Murphy 19th and Louise Kehoe 23rd. SBR took the bronze behind a strong Kilmore gold-medal winning team, while Slaney Olympic took silver.
It was then onto the mens race, which started at the same point as the ladies, but took in two laps of the course via the school and church on the second lap to make up the 10km distance.
Pre-race favourite Ger Forde took no prisoners from the start, setting a decent clip, with the only athlete to try keep tabs on him being Myles Gibbons of SBR. The order stayed this way for the duration of the race, with Ger coming home a clear winner. It was a good run from Myles to win the silver medal (this in fact being Myles' third successive time to claim second in the Wexford senor road race). There was a large group of athletes vying for the bronze medal and it was SBRs Noel Kennedy who eventually got the better of the group to secure third. In the process, Myles and Noel led SBR to gold medals in the team competition, along with Paul Gibbons in fourth and Joe Lillis in seventh. There was more good new to follow for the club, with the SBR ''B'' team winning the silver medals thanks to great runs from Patrick Curley in eight, Paul Lynch in tenth, Jim O' Malley in 12th and Tommy McElwain in 13th.
The club was also really well-represented by Niall O' Connor in 20th, Willie Rossiter 24th and Adrian Doyle 28th.
Many thanks to everyone who helped put on the championships and to all the supporters who travelled down to the outskirts of Wexford town for the races. Temperatures were high for the event, but it went off very smoothly and many thanks to the hosts for putting on the refreshments in the community centre afterwards.
Next championship event will be the first day of the Wexford track and field senior championships at the Sports Hub on Wednesday July 5th.

WEXFORD SENIOR ROAD RACES THIS COMING FRIDAY EVENING
- The County Wexford senior road race championships take place this Friday evening in Barntown, which is just on the edge of Wexford town.

The ladies race will get the action underway at 7pm, with the distance being 5km (one lap starting from Barntown church), then it's onto the mens race, which will cover 10km (two laps).
In terms of the team competitions, please note that it is four to score on teams in BOTH the ladies and mens races.
All athletes registered with an athletics club in County Wexford are eligible to compete, no matter what age they are or what competitions they have won. Everyone is encouraged to run and if unable to compete please come along to support. Looking forward to a great evening of competition.

FINAL RACE DETAILS FOR MICK MURPHY MEMORIAL 4MILE TOMORROW
The Mick Murphy memorial four miles road race is now just one day away, as it takes place tomorrow morning, Saturday June 10th at 11am.
Preparations have been going very well for the past number of weeks and the final touches are being put in place in Ferns for the race. The weather is also looking good for the morning of the race, so we're looking forward to a great event.
There are a couple of small changes that we would like to participants to be aware of. Due to a funeral taking place in Ferns, there will now be NO parking in the church grounds at the start line - however, there will be plenty of parking just up the street from here in the school, just drive around the back of the school and follow the stewards directions. There is also plenty of parking around Ferns village.
Registration now takes place in Ferns community centre and will be open from 9am - this is situated opposite the school and is only 100m away from the race start area. Refreshments and prizegiving also takes place in the community centre.
Apart from these minor changes everything else is exactly the same as in previous years, so it's all systems go.
If you need any last minute info please contact club secretary Louise on 086-8276661 or check out SBR ACs facebook page, while we have all the relevant info on this website too, under the ''Mick Murphy 4m'' tab at the top of this website.

LOTS OF MEDALS FOR SBR AT WEXFORD MASTERS ROAD RACES IN CROSSABEG
http://wexfordathletics.com/wexford-masters-road-race-championships-2017-crossabeg/Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. had a great evening at the Wexford masters road race championships in Crossabeg last Friday (May 5th 2017).
There were loads of medals won by SBR on the evening, as we had a large contingent of both ladies and men competing from the club.
The ladies race was first off over 4km, which saw the field start a kilometre away from Crossabeg school, which acted as race HQ. The race started at the base of the big hill, which made for a tentative first kilometre, but once the race got going in earnest, it was Kilmore A.C.s Jackie Carty, who opened up a race winning lead and crossed the finish line clear of Slaney Olympic athlete Emily O' Connor. SBRs Lillian Lawless had an excellent run, finishing in third place, to earn herself an individual bronze medal. Lillian was to lead the SBR team to the silver medals in the team competition behind a strong Kilmore outfit. The three scorers on the team were Lillian, Ciara Bowe in sixth and Belinda Kehoe in seventh, great running by all three athletes. Lisa Prendergast Murphy also ran a fine race for the club, finishing in 24th position.
The mens race was next up over 6km, which saw the race start a kilometre away from the village, passing through the finish line to take in the 5km lap. The race started at a very steady pace and only really started to pick up once the big hill had been negotiated. After the halfway mark, the tightly-knit leading group was whittled down with the increase in pace. Niall Sheil (St Killians A.C.) and Myles Gibbons (SBR) moved away from the field and in the last kilometre, it was Niall who quickened away to take the title for the fourth consecutive year, great consistent running by this athlete. Myles Gibbons led the SBR team home with an excellent second place finish and accompanied by Noel Kennedy in fifth, Paul Gibbons in sixth and Joe Lillis in eight, the Ferns team won gold medals in the team competition. There were plenty of other good performances from SBR athletes on the evening too, with Trevor Conroy finishing 11th, Eugene Doherty being second over-60, Adrian Doyle and Raymond Byrne both running well. Brian McLoughlin and Stephen O' Leary both represented the club too, while we had two gold medal winners in the over-65 and over-70 categories, as Tom Kavanagh and Billy Harpur respectively won their age groups, great going by these men.
Many thanks to St Killians A.C. for doing such a great job hosting the championships, from course management and stewarding to the post-race refreshments in the local national school, which was much appreciated by the athletes and supporters alike.

report of intermediate road races - april 2nd 2017 - coolgreany
The The County Wexford intermediate road race championships took place in Coolgreany last Sunday and what an excellent day of racing it was.
Croghan A.C. played host to the championships, thanks to them for organising the event and for putting on a fine spread of refreshments afterwards.
The sun shone for the day, which made conditions pleasurable for both competitors and spectators alike.
SBR enjoyed another successful day, winning silver medals in the team competitions in both ladies and mens races. The two standout individual performances from the club were from Louise Gregan in the ladies race and from Joe Lillis in the mens race.
The ladies intermediate over 4km was first off, with the race taking in a full lap of the course, which started and finished at the national school in Coolgreany. SBRs Belinda Kehoe was in the leading group from the start and she ran well to finish fourth home, behind race winner Sinead O' Brien (of Kilmore A.C.). However, Louise Gregan returned to her best form, with a very well-timed run to come through over the second half of the race to claim the bronze medal. She, along with Belinda, Emma Morris and Christine Hill were the scoring foursome for SBR, as the club won silver team medals behind Slaney Olympic A.C. Lisa Murphy, Claire Gibbons, Louise Kehoe and Lisa Breen also all ran well for the club on the day too.
Next up was the mens intermediate race, with a strong pace being set from the start by Conal Cooper of Slaney Olympic. The 8k race consisted of two laps of the course used for the ladies race, and over the second lap Alan O' Connor (United Striders A.C.) was to pace his effort very well, coming through to add this intermediate title to the novice crown he had won two weeks previously. Joe Lillis of SBR had a great run, leading the club home in sixth position, an excellent comeback to championships racing, following a run of injuries for the last year. Joe, along with Trevor Conroy (another who ran really well following an injury-blighted year), Jim O' Malley and Patrick Curley were the four runners to score for SBR and they won silver team medals behind Slaney Olympic - it was on countback, after SBR finished on the same number of points as Croghan, but due to SBRs final scorer finishing higher up than Croghans final scorer, SBR got the silver. Denis Moynihan, David Leonard, Tomas Kavanagh and Shane Gregan also all ran well for the club on the day.
Here's the link to the full results of the intermediate: http://wexfordathletics.com/county-wexford-intermediate-road-race-championships-coolgreany-2nd-april-2017/
The championship calendar in Wexford will now take a hiatus until May, but there will be Leinster and All-Ireland road races in the coming weeks, so we will have reports of these on this website and SBR ACs facebook page, check back soon for details.

report from 2017 novice road races - sunday march 19th
There was an excellent turnout from around the county for the Wexford novice road race championships in Enniscorthy last Sunday morning.
Slaney Olympic A.C. were the host club and they staged the races on the smaller lap of the old Dublin road course, which saw the ladies race start on the main road opposite Donohoes car showrooms and the mens race start on the Old Dublin road near the NCT centre. Both races then finished in the cul de sac at Clearstream. There was excellent support out on the course, which added to the excitement.
The ladies were first off at 11am and had 3km to cover. A tightly-knit group of ladies stayed together for most of the first 2km, but on the main road, SBRs Clodagh Dunbar made her move and quickly opened a race winning lead, which she extended over the final 400m, coming home 14 seconds clear of United Striders Sonya Byrne, with Vanessa McShane of the host club in third place.
This was a great result for Clodagh, who has shown rapid improvement since joining the club last Autumn and she led the SBR ladies to a bronze medal in the team competition, behind Slaney Olympic and United Striders. The scoring foursome for the club were Clodagh Dunbar, Christine Hill, Emma Morris and Orla Furlong.
Lisa Breen, Claire Gibbons, Mairead O' Neill and Olive Spencer all also represented the club really well on the day too. Great to see so many ladies in the blue colours.
The mens race was next up over 6km and SBRs Tomas Kavanagh was in the leading group of six athletes throughout. However over the final lap, Tomas wasn't quite able to match the break made by Alan O' Connor and David Kehoe (this pair eventually filled the gold and silver medal positions respectively). Tomas was in the bronze medal position on the final lap, but he was to be eventually relegated to fifth position by a pair of Croghan athletes, Mark Poole and William Keogh. Great running though Tomas, and good race experience too for the future.
The SBR mens team didn't figure among the medals, with the team comprising Tomas, Niall O' Connor, Adrian Doyle and Padraig Sweeney.
Pat Kirwan, Ryan Gleeson and Liam Breen also competed on the day for club, with Shane Gregan pulling out on the final lap.
Everyone enjoyed the refreshments put on by Slaney Olympic in the showrooms of Skoda cars across the road, where the cups were presented to the two winning clubs, Slaney Olympic for the ladies and Croghan A.C. for the men. Many thanks to all the helpers who made the day run so successfully, a great start to the championships road racing season in Wexford.
Next up is the County Wexford intermediate road race championships in two weeks, with Croghan hosting the event in Coolgreaney on Sunday April 2nd (Coolgreaney is approximately six miles north of Gorey) - the ladies will cover 4km and the men 8km.

LARGE SBR ENTRY FOR THIS SUNDAYS BALLYCOTTON 10
Best of luck to everyone who will be competing in the renowned Ballycotton ten miles road race in County Cork this coming Sunday (March 12th), with a large entry of runners from across County Wexford. Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. has its largest entry (26) in the race in many years (if not ever), and although there's bound to be a few runners from the list missing on the start line for various reasons (due to entries having had to be in months ago), it's great to see such a number making the two-hour-plus-journey. All info related to the race can be found on the organisers website at this link http://www.ballycottonrunning.com/, while all the breaking news can be found on John Desmonds blog at this link https://corkrunning.blogspot.ie/.

SBR SPRING LEAGUE RESUMES THIS COMING WEDNESDAY
The SBR Spring league gets back into action this week, with the fifth leg (of six) taking place on Wednesday evening (March 8th) in Ferns. It'll be a two miles race this time and depending on numbers we're planning on having two separate races - the ladies race at 7-30pm, followed by the mens race. However, if it's like two weeks ago, when the poor weather forecast forced the ladies and mens races to be run together, could everyone please be on the square for a half seven start, just in case. Results will be posted here later that evening and everyone who is a member of SBR or interested in joining an athletics club are more than welcome. More info from Louise on 086-8276661 or Lukie on 087-3222914.

The SBR Spring league has been postponed for this week, so that means that tonights race (Wednesday March 1st) will now take place next week (Wednesday March 8th). Apologies for any inconvenience caused to athletes. More details about the league in the coming days.

great day for sbr at county wexford intermediate in adamstown
Adamstown A.C. played host to the County Wexford intermediate and uneven-ages juvenile cross country championships yesterday and it proved to be another very successful afternoon for Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C.
There had been torrential rain overnight and during the morning, but thankfully this had abated well before the time the senior programme was getting underway and the course held up surprisingly well, with underfoot conditions relatively good following such an amount of rain.
The ladies race over 4km was first off and Sharon Cloney (Kilmore A.C.) was soon to the fore. She quickly built up a sizeable gap on the opposition and never saw another rival, coming home a clear winner of the intermediate title. Behind there were great battles going on, with a group of four athletes battling for the silver and bronze medals - Belinda Kehoe, Ciara Bowe (both SBR), Christine Stone (DMP) and Mary Gorham (Slaney Olympic). In the final kilometre, it was down to Ciara Bowe and Christine Stone, with the SBR athlete sprinting to the line to take a fine silver medal ahead of DMPs Christine. The SBR ladies came away with silver medals in the team competition behind Slaney Olympic, thanks to the efforts of Ciara in second, Belinda in fifth, Claire Gibbons in 11th and Lisa Murphy in 17th - great going girls!
Then it was onto the mens 8km race. Following a brisk early start, which saw SBRs Willie Rossiter lead out the race, a group of three moved clear of the field, with Pedro Calvo (SBR) just leading from John McGrath (United Striders) and Andrew Dowse. From halfway, the race for gold was between Pedro and John, and over the final lap and a half Pedro moved clear and by the finish line he had run out a decisive winner from John McGrath, with Andrew Dowse taking the bronze medal. Behind in the field, there were many exciting battles, and thanks to great runs from Denis Moynihan (fifth), Willie Rossiter (ninth) and Jim O' Malley (10th), SBR (led home by Pedro) claimed gold medals in the team competition. David Leonard, Brian Kearney and Adrian Doyle competed well on the day also.
Well done to everyone who ran on the day, and thanks to Adamstown A.C. for hosting the event. Many thanks to Leo for the attached picture and a full set of Leos photos from the juvenile and intermediate races can be seen at this link: https://www.facebook.com/Wexford.Athletics/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1079638405468128

At 2pm (and not before according to Athletics Wexford), the intermediate races get underway, with the ladies first up, racing over 4km. Then it's onto the men, who will compete over 8km.
It's four to score on each team, for both ladies and men, so make sure to tog out for your team if you're qualified, and run for every place!
Athletes are qualified to run the intermediate if they haven't won an individual medal at this grade in the past two seasons, or at a higher grade. Anyone who won an individual medal in the intermediate road from the Spring are qualified to run, as intermediate categories etc are based on the same calendar year.
Here is some important information regarding the course and parking etc that Adamstown AC have released:

Here is some important information regarding the course and parking etc that Adamstown AC have released:
- The course will be held in Castleview, Adamstown, the same field as the novice cross country was held in last year but a different layout.
- The field is kindly given to us for the day by the Furlong family, Castleview, please respect their land.
- This is a working farm, so gaps are a bit muddy, wear appropriate footwear - wellies, hiking boots, etc – high heels would not be the best choice.
- Parking is in a different field from last year.
- All traffic please enter from The Leap, Adamstown - that is the Enniscorthy side of Adamstown.
- Coming from Enniscorthy/Gorey you will be signposted to turn right before you come to Adamstown Village
- Coming from Wexford/New Ross, pass through the village going for Clonroche/Enniscorthy (don’t turn up for the church), take next turn left, signed posted for cross country.
- There is a short walk from parking to the track, please do not jump the ditches.
- Please follow the instructions of the parking stewards at all times.
- Adamstown AC will have a shop and teas for sale on the day. There will be top class buns etc on sale so would encourage all to support.

GREAT DAY FOR SBR AT COUNTY WEXFORD NOVICE XC
The 2016 cross country championships kicked off in style for SBR last Sunday, with lots of excellent performances and medals won.
United Striders A.C. did a great job of hosting the championships in JFK Arboretum, which lies on the outskirts of New Ross and the weather couldn't have been better, with temperatures high and bright sunshine making for almost a Summers afternoon.
The action kicked off at midday with the juvenile even-ages championships and it was great to see lots of SBR youngsters in action, well done to all who competed and who won medals for the club.
At 2pm, it was onto the novice championships, with the ladies first up at 2pm. The race started at a brisk pace, set by Elaine McCabe from Bree A.C. (who would eventually run out an impressive winner) and she was followed by a group comprising SBRs Belinda Kehoe, with the other six SBR girls not far behind. Over the course of the 3km distance, there was much change in positions between the SBR ladies and some great competition for each athlete to be one of the four scoring members on the team, great to see such a battling spirit. Belinda Kehoe led the team home in fifth position, followed by Claire Gibbons, Louise Kehoe and new club member Clodagh Murray. The performance of this foursome saw SBR claim silver team medals, great going and much to look forward to for the future. Christine Hill, Lisa Murphy and Lisa Breen all ran well too, great to see such numbers from the club competing.
Then it was onto the mens 6km novice race and in his customary tactics, SBRs Pedro Calvo was quickly to the fore and he maintained this trend for the whole race, increasing his lead over each of the six laps to prove a clear winner, thus adding the novice crown to his titles from the novice and intermediate road races in the Spring. SBR also claimed the bronze medal, with Patrick Curley having a fine run as he continues his buildup to the Dublin marathon at the end of the month. Patrick and Andrew Dowse of Croghan A.C. were locked together for much of the race, but Andrew was just able to move clear on the final lap to claim the silver medal. The other SBR scorers were Tomas Kavanagh (in his first championship race) and Niall O' Connor and the excellent performance of this quartet saw SBR win gold in the team cometition, super going guys. Also competing well for the club on the afternoon were Adrian Doyle (fresh from his PB in the Berlin marathon), Shane Gregan and new club member Padraig Sweeney.
Thanks to everyone who competed so well for the club on the day and also to all the supporters who travelled to cheer. Next championship race will be in two weeks time when the County Wexford intermediate cross country championships will take place in Adamstown on Sunday October 16th. They will get underway at 2pm (following the uneven-ages juvenile championships which start at midday) - looking forward to another great day.

COUNTY WEXFORD NOVICE XC THIS COMING SUNDAY
The 2016 cross country season kicks off properly this coming Sunday (October 2nd) as the County Wexford novice and even-ages juvenile cross country championships take place in JFK Arboretum, New Ross.
The juvenile programme kicks off proceedings at 12 noon, and then at 2pm it's onto the novice races. Please note that 2pm is the scheduled start time, but this depends on the juvenile programme finishing on time, but the novice races will not start before 2pm.
The ladies 3km novice race is first up, then the novice men will race over 6km. The races are open to anyone who hasn't won an individual medal at any championship level before 2016 (which means anyone that medalled in the novice road races earlier this year are still eligible).
In both ladies and mens races, it's four to score for a team, so there should be a large turnout for both races, with everyone running for every place for their club. We encourage everyone who is eligible to run to pull on their spikes and compete, and if you're not eligible then please come along and support.
The venue is located approximately 12km from New Ross town, here's a link to directions to the arboretum: https://www.google.ie/maps/dir/New+Ross,+Co.+Wexford/JFK+Arboretum,+New+Ross,+Co.+Wexford/@52.3673803,-6.9978268,12z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x4842b6ba41554d5f:0xa00c7a997321e70!2m2!1d-6.94719!2d52.3962044!1m5!1m1!1s0x4842b9e63a4f9d41:0x264b3835a308dcb!2m2!1d-6.9337142!2d52.3209141!3e0.

Well done to all the Irish athletes who competed in last Sundays Berlin marathon, the 26.2 miles race that took place on September 25th and which forms one of the World marathon majors . Pictured are the three SBR members (left to right: Jim O' Malley, David Leonard and Adrian Doyle) who made the journey to Germany, along with Ferns native Micheal Murphy who runs in the Rathfarnham WSAF colours. All four had excellent runs, with personal bests for both Micheal and Adrian, great going guys after many months of hard training and long miles.

SBR SUMMER LEAGUE ROUND 6 - ONE MILE TRACK RACES - JULY 1ST 2016
Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. held it's first ever series of one mile track races last Friday evening at the sports hub in Enniscorthy and there was another good turnout on the night, with many having their first experience of racing on the tartan athletics surface. There was a mixture of runaway winners, hard fought winners and those who won their races with waiting tactics, so it was a good varied evening of racing and a welcome variety from the multitude of road races at present.
The full results from each race are listed below. Many thanks to the helpers on the night. There will be no Summer league for the next two weeks due to the County Wexford senior track and field championships taking place on each of the next two Wednesday evenings at the aforementioned sports hub - we encourage all SBR members to tog out for the club in these championships as there are races of all distances to suit everyone, or field events to try your hand at to win a county medal.

DETAILS FOR SBR ONE MILE LEAGUE RACES - FRIDAY JULY 1ST 2016
The SBR Summer league again breaks new ground this coming Friday, with the club holding a series of one mile races on the athletics track in Enniscorthy for the first time. The league is open to SBR members or those looking to join the club, so if you're interested in becoming a member why not come along to have your time recorded over the classic one mile distance (which covers four laps of the track - it's a great chance to run on the tartan surface and test yourself).
The action gets underway at 7pm and all runners will be graded into various races for both males and females. The ''A'' grade men will start proceedings at 7pm, then onto the ''B'' grade men, followed by the ''C'' grade men and then there will be a similar series for the ladies (depending on numbers of course). Each race is scheduled to start at ten minute intervals, so please be well warmed up prior to your start time to ensure the smooth running of the race programme.
There is limited parking at the sports hub, so please car pool if possible. The facility is located beside Enniscorthy rugby club and is easily accessed from the New Ross road - when travelling down the hill heading for New Ross, take the right hand turn at the roundabout and the track is approximately a quarter of a mile over this road on the right-hand-side.
Weather permitting we will have the club digital clock in action, and results will be uploaded to SBR ACs facebook page that evening.
Any questions contact us through facebook or contact club secretary Louise on 086-8276661.

SBR SUMMER LEAGUE ROUND 4 - OLD BAWN 5K BEACH RACE, BALLYGARRETT - THURSDAY JUNE 9TH 2016
There was a really good turnout again at last nights fourth round of the SBR Summer league, as we travelled much further afield this time, taking in the delights of the North Wexford coastline, as the club hosted its first ever beach race on Old Bawn strand, a short distance from Ballygarrett village.
Visibility was down to a few hundred metres thanks to heavy fog, but this didn't deter some great racing, and everyone who participated enjoyed the evening and the different surface, the softer sand and encroaching tide making the 5k more of a test than it would be on the road.
Noel Kennedy posted his first win of the Summer, holding off the late challenge of Trevor Conroy who came home very strongly from the turnaround point 2.5km into the race. The mens race proved very competitive in fact, with a number of leaders vying for surpemacy, until Noel made the winning move before the 4km mark.
On the ladies side, Lillian Lawless continued her perfect Summer strike rate, with a strong run to win from Belinda Kehoe and Emma Morris.
Well done to everyone who competed, many of whom for which this would have been their competitive debut on the sand. Many thanks to everyone who helped out on the evening too, as the race took place from scratch on the beach, with the area being left clear afterwards too, not showing a sign of a race having taken place there.

RACE DETAILS FOR ROUND 4 OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE - BEACH RACE IN BALLYGARRETT
Thursday evening (June 9th) will see Sliabh Buidhe Rovers A.C. break new ground (quite literally!) with the club holding a league race on the beach near the picturesque village of Ballygarrett, on North Wexfords coastline.
The 5k race will take place on Old Bawn beach, which is approximately 4km away from Ballygarrett.
The race will get underway at 7-30pm, but due to relatively limited parking at Old Bawn, we are encouraging everyone to park in the cark park at Ballygarrett church (in the middle of the village) and we will organise car pooling to the start from there, or anyone looking for a nice warmup can jog over to the start.
Old Bawn is located off the R742, between Ballygarrett and Kilmuckridge - when travelling from the Courtown direction, continue through Ballygarrett village and after 2km, there will be a signpost on the left-hand-side of the road that says ''Old Bawn 2km''. Turn left here and continue driving for those 2km and the carpark and entry to the beach is located at the end of this road.
At the moment (Tuesday evening), the weather is forecasted to be good once the thunderstorms have disappeared, so we're planning on having a little picnic near the finish area at Old Bawn, so just turn up, run and we'll have a few treats to help you recover after the exertions :-)

SBR SUMMER LEAGUE ROUND 3 - SLIABH BUIDHE 5K TRAIL RACE THURSDAY JUNE 2ND 2016
A beautiful night on Sliabh Buidhe saw 39 runners out on the 3rd Leg of Summer League over the 5K distance. After a fast 2K start, the race turned up against the hill for a good long climb before a flying finish back down the side of Sliabh Buidhe. Special thanks to all the volunteers who marked out the course and took times/photos and to all the spectators as well. We look forward to seeing you all next week in Ballygarrett along the sea!

SBR SUMMER LEAGUE ROUND 2 - GOREY 5KM - THURSDAY MAY 26TH 2016
There was another really good turnout of club runners and potential members at last weeks second leg of the SBR Summer league. Nice sunshine (with a headwind on the long home straight) greeted runners, with the course starting at Redmonds Garden Centre and finishing nearby on the Arklow road, having taken in a lap of Ballyloughan. There were lots of great battles through the field, no doubt some fuelled by the announcement beforehand by club Chairman Lukie Kehoe that both men and women had been graded into grades A, B and C. We're looking forward to some great competition over the length of the Summer!
This weeks league is on the move again, with the race taking place on Sliabh Buidhe. Registration will take place from 7pm (if you've ran one of the first two legs, you hold onto the same number and use it), with the 5k race off at 7-30pm. This is a great chance to run on some lovely trails and the course has been marked out by some of our club members who have found a very runnable and flat (as flat as can be expected in this region!) route. The venue is halfway between Ferns and Carnew, located on the right-hand-side as you head for Carnew and parking will be in a field (so if possible please car pool) and the start is one mile from here, so please come that little bit earlier and use it as a warm-up. Looking forward to another great evening of running, come along if you've ever thought of trying club running or were interested in a joining....

RACE DETAILS FOR CHRISTMAS HANGOVER 5K
This fun run/race/walk will take place in Ferns, Co. Wexford on Sunday December 28th.

Here's a a ''map my run'' link to the course map for the event: http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/597485300
Refreshments and prizegiving will also take place in the community centre afterwards.
There will be prizes for the first three men and first three women home on the day, while there will also be lots of spot prizes down through the field. Included in the prizes will be a special prize for the best dressed couple, so whether you're man and wife, boyfriend and girlfriend or couples of the same sex, why not get creative with your costumes and join in the fun.
All runners, joggers and walkers will receive a finishing time and position, full results of which will be published on this website on the afternoon of the event.

This was the last of the two miles races in the league and lots of runners achieved personal bests for the distance, congratulations to all. Paul Lynch rattled off another win in the mens division, going clear from the start, while Chloe Springer Nolan made it a perfect eight wins out of eight by winning a very competitive ladies division. Next week the league will culminate with a one miler in Ferns, so everyone is invited to come along and compete, while prizegiving for the league and refreshments will take place afterwards in ''The Thatch'' afterwards. The full results from Bunclody are:
1 - Paul Lynch 9-50
2 - Paul Gibbons 10-11

7TH LEG OF SBR SUMMER LEAGUE - CARNEW 2 MILES
Thursday August 14th 2014
Well done to everyone who competed in last nights 7th leg of the SBR Summer league in Carnew - conditions certainly felt a lot more autumnal as we didn't bask in the lovely sunshine of our first visit to Carnew earlier in the Summer but there was still great running over the two miles course, which features the long drag up through the town over the final mile. Thanks to everyone who helped out at the race and to Danielle Hennessy for setting up the course. Next weeks league returns to the normal Wednesday evening slot, but due to the fading light, the league will get underway at the slightly earlier time of 7-30pm. It'll be the same two miles course in Bunclody as we used a few weeks ago, so looking forward to some fast times again :-)
Full results from last nights race in Carnew are as follows:
1 - Paul Lynch 10-35
2 - Paul Gibbons 10-58

GOREY 5K FUN RUN IN AID OF HAITI - NEXT SUNDAY JULY 27TH @ 11AM
The Gorey 5k fun run is almost upon us - preparations are well underway for the race this coming Sunday and everyone is welcome to take part, whether seasoned runners, fun runners or those looking to increase fitness in a friendly environment.
The weather looks good, with a very warm weekend forecasted, but it'll be slightly less hot on Sunday (20 degrees forecasted) so that'll suit everyone taking part, so what better way to get some rays of sun than taking part in the fun run. There'll be a plentiful supply of water at the finish line to quench everyones thirst the minute they complete the 5k.
SBR club member Paul Gibbons is organising this charity fun run in Gorey at 11am to raise funds for Irish relief work in Haiti.
Michael Redmond, who scored on many SBR teams through the years and who most recently provided much needed physio rubs free of charge both before and after the Ferns half marathon last September, is part of a group of 13 from Ireland travelling to Haiti in December to help improve the living conditions of those still suffering the effects of the earthquakes there five years ago. All proceeds from the run will go to the work of this group during their efforts in Haiti.
Registration will take place on the morning of the race from 10am in Redmonds Home and Garden Centre (which is on the Arklow road, just outside of Gorey), where the race will start, and entry fee is ten euro. There will be prizes for the first three men and first three ladies home, with spot prizes through the field. Prizegiving will also take place in Redmonds at 12 noon.
Snacks will be served in Remonds Home and Garden Centre after the race - many thanks to proprietor Seamie Redmond for the use of his premises. Thanks also to Debbie from the Roadside Cafe for the use of her carpark to set up the water station at the finish line and for also facilitating parking around her premises. If anyone would like to indulge in something more substantial than the snacks we'll be providing afterwards, then Debbie serves lovely breakfast and dinner specials in the cafe at very competitive prices.
For more info contact Paul on 087-9004221 or bewleysberry@yahoo.co.uk, while all the latest news from the run will also be available on facebook - find us at Gorey 5k fun run. Full results and times, plus race pictures, will be published online the evening of the race.

DETAILS FOR SBR SUMMER LEAGUE 2 MILES IN GOREY - WEDNESDAY JULY 9TH @ 8PM
The second leg of the SBR Summer league takes place this Wednesday evening in Gorey, with the race distance again being two miles. This week everyone (juniors, ladies and men) will compete in the one race, which will get underway at 8pm.
Registration will take place in the car park at David James car sales/the Transporter restaurant (which is on the Arklow road out of Gorey - the R772) - everyone who registered last week, please wear the same race numbers as you are now in the system. We welcome runners of all standards to come along on the evening (the league is a great way to increase fitness in a friendly social atmosphere), so if you didn't run the Ferns two miler last week, feel free to register from 7pm (it's only 10 euro for the whole of the league, whether you do one race or all races). Everyone can use the jog to the start to warm up, while the jog from the finish back to the car park will be a good warm down. Although if anyone would like a lift to the start, cars will be travelling out so just ask at registration.
Here's a ''Map My Run'' link to the route, which starts near Greens Berry Farm and finishes back near Butlers service station, a really flat route, with little or no hills http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/465569646

JIM CARTON MEMORIAL FIVE MILES ROAD RACE - BALLYFAD
The inaugural Jim Carton memorial five miles road race took place in Ballyfad, Gorey last Sunday morning and what a success the event was. A tough course faced runners, with the route based around Croghan mountain but this didn't deter a large entry and everyone enjoyed the experience on a lovely sunny Summers morning. Many thanks to everyone who helped in any way make the event run so smoothly - the joint organisers (Ballyfad committee and The Worx gym in Gorey) were grateful to everyone who gave up their time to help in anyway, from those who stewarded on the route to those who took times and placings at the finish line, to the ladies who provided such lovely and much needed refreshments in the hall afterwards. There was a fitting tribute to the late Jim Carton before the race, with his retired comrades from the UN and Irish army providing a guard of honour to the start of the race.

An update on the opening round of the 2014 SBR Summer league - due to a funeral wake taking place on the route originally planned for the two miles race on Wednesday July 2nd, SBR has decided to change the race route. The two miles race will now take place around the ''V'' in Ferns village, with the start being on the main road just outside St Aidans cemetery, while the finish will be on the square outside Ferns castle (after two and a half laps of the ''V''). Registration will still take place on the square from 7pm (10 euro will see you entered into the league and this will entitle you to run as few or as many races as you wish during the course of the nine weeks). However, due to the change in route there will be two separate races on Wednesday night - one for ladies and juniors at 7-45pm and the second for the senior men immediately after (approximately 8-05pm). Preliminary results and pictures will be available on Sliabh Buidhe Rovers' facebook page shortly after the race, while official results will be posted on this website the day after the race. Look forward to seeing a large entry competing :-)
The inaugural Jim Carton memorial five miles road race will take place this coming Sunday (July 6th) in Balllyfad, Gorey, Co. Wexford at 11am. Entry fee is fifteen euro and registration will take place in Ballyfad hall from 9-45am on the morning of the race, where refreshments will be served afterwards. The event is being organised by the local committee in Ballyfad in conjunction with the staff of The Worx gym in Gorey, where the late Jim worked as a fitness instructor. Here's a ''map my run'' link to the challenging race route, which the organisers describe as ''scenic'' - http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/458704198. For more info on the event please contact Siobhan on 087-1165720 or Tanya on 085-8706098.
2014 SBR SUMMER LEAGUE
The SBR Summer league is just around the corner again!
Starting on Wednesday July 2nd in Ferns at 8pm, the league will continue for eight weeks and will travel around to different locations. Kicking off with the two miler in Ferns (the last two miles of the Mick Murphy course - ie the stump lane/main road route finishing on the square outside Ferns castle), the league will then move to a three miler in Gorey, another three miler in Carnew, again a three miler in Bunclody and swinging back for the same courses in Gorey, Carnew and Bunclody (to try improve on your time for each venue) before finishing back in Ferns with a one mile race.
The league is open to all runners and joggers, whether members of SBR or other clubs or indeed not members of a club at all - this is a great way of joining in the fun of competitive running in a friendly atmosphere with the sun shining. Entry to the league is ten euro and this will entitle entrants to compete in all eight races, or as many or few as you like, with the five best placings counting in overall prizes which will be awarded in ''The Thatch'' on the final evening of the league. Registration for the first leg in Ferns will take place on the square outside Ferns castle from 7pm on Wednesday July 2nd, with subsequent races all starting at 8pm also (and registration for new league competitors starting from 7-30pm). Please hold onto your race number as this will be your number for the entire league.
For more info contact SBR chairman Lukie Kehoe on 087-3222914 or SBR PRO Paul Gibbons on 087-9004221. Results and pictures from each leg of the league will be published on the evening of each race on both this website and Sliabh Buidhe Rovers' facebook page.

Kicking off with the two miler in Ferns (the last two miles of the Mick Murphy course - ie the stump lane/main road route finishing on the square outside Ferns castle), the league will then move to a three miler in Gorey, another three miler in Carnew, again a three miler in Bunclody and swinging back for the same courses in Gorey, Carnew and Bunclody (to try improve on your time for each venue) before finishing back in Ferns with a one mile race.
The league is open to all runners and joggers, whether members of SBR or other clubs or indeed not members of a club at all - this is a great way of joining in the fun of competitive running in a friendly atmosphere with the sun shining. Entry to the league is ten euro and this will entitle entrants to compete in all eight races, or as many or few as you like, with the five best placings counting in overall prizes which will be awarded in ''The Thatch'' on the final evening of the league. Registration for the first leg in Ferns will take place on the square outside Ferns castle from 7pm on Wednesday July 2nd, with subsequent races all starting at 8pm also (and registration for new league competitors starting from 7-30pm). Please hold onto your race number as this will be your number for the entire league.
For more info contact SBR chairman Lukie Kehoe on 087-3222914 or SBR PRO Paul Gibbons on 087-9004221. Results and pictures from each leg of the league will be published on the evening of each race on both this website and Sliabh Buidhe Rovers' facebook page.

The 2014 SBR Winter League came to a conclusion last Thursday evening in Ferns, with all runners competing in a combined two miles road race. There were some great times recorded with very good improvements by plenty of runners again, well done to ye all. This was the first evening that the race took place in daylight (due to the clocks going forward the previous Saturday) and afterwards it was into ''The Thatch'' for some well-earned refreshments and prize giving for the league. Danielle Hennessy was awarded the prize for the ladies division, while prizes were also awarded to all the juniors who had completed the series. In the mens section, the runners had been divided into three divisions, with the overall results as follows:
Grade ''A'' - 1st Myles Gibbons, 2nd Paul Lynch, 3rd Paul Gibbons
Grade ''B'' - 1st Joe Lillis, 2nd John Murphy, 3rd Brendan Kehoe
Grade ''C'' - 1st Adrian Doyle, 2nd Dick Boland, 3rd Pat Crean

START OF WINTER LEAGUE
There was a very healthy turnout for the first leg of the 2014 SBR Winter league in Ferns on Thursday evening, with very good running conditions greeting participants, with barely a light breeze blowing. The ladies and juniors race was first off, with James Boland winging his way around the two miles course in a solo to be first home, while Danielle Hennessy was first lady home (and second overall). A number of the lady runners clocked personal bests, testament to some good training since the Christmas period.
Next up were the senior men and it was a good battle between between Myles Gibbons and the ever-improving Paul Lynch. It was only on the last lap that Myles properly opened a gap and he finished strongly to post a very decent time. Well done to all who ran and thanks to those who helped. Next weeks league again takes place on Thursday evening and will continue each week for the next nine weeks.
Full results as follows:

SBR ON TOUR - LANZAROTE 2013
Some of the clubs athletes recently made the trip to the Canary Islands for the Lanzarote International Running Challenge and they did the club proud.
The Challenge comprises four races in four days, with the series being based out of Club La Santa, a haven of sport and fitness in the north-western part of the island. Not surprisingly the sun shone brightly for the week, although it was windy for most of the four-race-challenge, but the SBR athletes really enjoyed the action.
On the Sunday, the challenge began with the Vince Regan memorial 10km road race, which started and finished on the athletics track at Club La Santa and comprised a two-lap course on the roads near the complex. Myles Gibbons had a good run, placing 7th in a time of 34-42, while Tommy McElwain was 21st in 36-15 and David Leonard 29th in 37-38.
On the Monday, athletes tackled the Ridge Run, a 13km race starting and finishing on the CLS track but a course which brought them to the top of a volcano and back down again. Myles again ran well to finish 7th again in 45-48, with Tommy winning his category (45-49) in 47-00 (16th place) and David finishing 39th in 50-41.
On the Tuesday, all entrants were taken by bus to the tourist district of Puerto Del Carmen, where they competed in a 5km beach race. It was Tommys turn to lead the SBR boys home, coming in 7th in 19-11 on the deep sand (and winning his category again), with Myles 15th in 19-43 and David 37th in 21-18.
The final days racing on the Wednesday saw the athletes bussed to the volcanic mountains to start outside a chapel and from here they would have to run a half marathon to finish back on the track at CLS. Myles had a storming run, finishing fourth in 72-55, with Tommy also very strong in 9th (74-37 and winning his category for the third day in a row). David ran well also, placing 33rd in 80-45.
Overall in the series, Myles finished 6th, Tommy finished 10th and David finished 32nd. And in their age categories overall, Tommy was the winner of the 45-49 age-group, while Myles finished third in the 35-39 age bracket and David was 9th in the 40-44 category. The team was decided on a three-man scoring basis, with SBR finishing fifth overall (many thanks to Dick O' Gorman of Clonmel AC for running as a guest with SBR for the four days).A full list of results can be found at this link:

FERNS SANTA DASH A BIG SUCCESS
Many thanks to everyone who came out to support the Ferns Santa Dash that took place yesterday morning. The weather was very kind to both participants and organisers alike, with a large entry enjoying the 5k course that had a festive feel to it, as all entrants received a santa hat, while plenty of the runners also donned their best Christmas colours. Full results are available on the "results" section to this website, while pictures from the days activities can be found on SBRs facebook page at this link: https://www.facebook.com/SliabhBuidheRovers/media_set?set=a.517287021703623.1073741852.100002669883756&type=1. Big thanks to everyone who helped in any way to facilitate the fun run to go off so smoothly - there's far too many to mention, but the event couldn't take place without such good work.
