Well done to everyone who took to their feet on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday saw our younger competitors take to the grass as they ran in a variety of races from wobblier to mini teen followed by an obstacle race.
On Sunday 13 was the main event the 6K walk and 10K run which was a great success, congratulations to the winners- women were Jessica Coyne, Hilkk Kontro and Donna Hayes. The men were Niall Shanahan, Colm Tucker and Declan Ginane. A very well done to the first club member back Breandán O’hAnnaidh, who after helping in the childrens run the day before played in the intermediate football match Saturday night and still had the energy to run and win the Pat Barron trophy which he accepted from Mike Barron.
A big Thank you to all our committee members and to everyone who helped out over the weekend as stewards, administration or caterers.

A great night had by all with some memorable moments recalled and some past memories better forgotten. Matt O’Callaghan did a fantastic job as always with his research done well in advance he was able to recite scores of Harty Cup games from years ago. There were interesting questions from the floor that added to the night.
We, Mungret St. Pauls would like to Thank Gerry McNamara for organising this event with the Limerick GAA Health and Wellbeing and Mungret Heritage. Thank you to Kevin O’Hagan who opened and closed the event, to Matt O’Callaghan and our panelists Richie Bennis, Bernie Hartigan, Eamonn Grimes, Eamon Cregan and Tom Ryan. Unfortunately Liam O’Donoghue was unable to attend. We would like to thank all who attended on the night, coming out in the bad weather. As always a special word of Thanks to the committee who set up the hall and served the refreshments.
There was only one camp hosted in Ireland this year and Limerick was the chosen place. Just under 60 children aged 13 years to 15 years attended this very well organised camp hosted in Old Christians GAA. Celtic Football and the GAA organised the coaches.
The camps aim is to bring together young people from different sporting and cultural backgrounds using coaching sessions in both Gaelic games and soccer. These on-field activities, led by top coaches from both codes, were complemented by an innovative off-field programme that is intended to enhance the life-skills of the participants in a number of targeted areas.
