On Wednesday 9th November the Ardscoil Rís 1st and 2nd years attended the Blackrock Cross Country relays. Athletics is proving to be very popular with 1st years who made up five teams and there were two second year teams.
D. Murphy started off the 1st Year relay, Konrad was then tapped in to start the 1K. H. Giffney, running comfortably, tapped G. Spring in to finish strongly on the last 1k.
An ASR 1st Year team came 9th overall out of 45 teams from schools across Dublin!
The 2nd Years put in a great effort too and had a strong first team made up of M. Bannan, A. Flynn, S. Conlen and A. McDonnell.
Well done to all involved in the outing.
