We're in the last days of 2018 with a New Year soon upon but our members finished the last year strongly with some very good performances at the North West Games in Athlone IT last Saturday.
Superbly organised by Athletics Donegal, the event was a Christmas feast of athletics with events in all age groups and some great performances from Carrick AC athletes.
These ranged from two wins for Alannah McGuinness to the Kennedy brothers putting on a show that had the crowd rising to their feet, applauding them down the home straight as they ran side by side from start to finish, Declan just edging Patrick in the finish.
Ellis Conway put in two very solid performances over 200m and 400m while Oisin O'Dowd set two new personal bests before he heads back to Holland for his studies and Oisin Kearney also set a big new pb over 400m.
Cathal McElgunn, Oisin O'Dowd,
Oisin Kearney and Susanne O'Beirne were also among the winners so well done to everyone who took part.
