Ciara Everard (UCD) put in a scintillating performance last Saturday, February 4th at the IUAA Irish Inter-Varsity Championships held in Nenagh to break the Irish under 23 800m indoor record held by none other than the great Sonia O Sullivan.
The 18 participants of the inaugural Sports Volunteer Development Programme were presented with their certificates of completion by the Cathaoirleach Cllr. John Bailey and Mr. John Treacy C.E.O. of the Irish Sports Council at a reception in Dún Laoghaire County Hall last night.
Students compete in the CAO points race, then race against college fees but they will be racing in a more healthy sense when the third annual Rás UCD 5K Road Race starts at 12.00pm on Saturday February 25th at University College Dublin.
