Bring on the JK Relays this Easter weekend! Olivia is your Relay Person for the weekend; she’ll be collecting the bibs n all. Good luck everyone, be awesome and have heaps of fun! With lots of good wishes from your Relay Department, Susan & Olivia 🙂
Hi everyone, we are pulling together club JK relay teams and it looks like we’re going to have at least 8 teams of 3 runners 🙂 Are you going to the JK and looking for a relay run? If you haven’t heard from either of us yet, please contact myself or Olivia by tomorrow evening Friday 21st March and we’ll get you onto a team, email < olivia at lvo.org.uk > Susan & Olivia
We have a cracking TEN teams for IOC 2024. Hosted by our friends in WEGO, and based around Lough Ree, the relays follow 3 days of individual competition. A wonderful test for tired legs (and tired brains), we certainly are one of the largest clubs and one of the loudest on the run-in for ALL our teams 🙂
A massive GOOD LUCK to all out JK relay teams – and as if that’s not enough, we have 4 juniors running in Irish Junior Squad teams too. What a way to round out 4 days of Easter competition. Olivia will be looking after the teams on the weekend itself – seek her out, claim your bib, check for any team changes etc etc 🙂
Thanks so much everyone for putting your hand up for a JK Relay run at Easter time. We have loads of teams. Please take a look at your new friends (below) and make sure you know what they look like in person!! We also have James Ewart running for an Irish Junior Squad team, as well as Orla Lynch & Dave Ewart ably occupying the substitutes bench. Olivia Baxter will be looking after the teams (collecting bibs, last minute subs etc) on the JK weekend. Don’t come looking for me as I’ll be in Co Clare with no phone reception Read More …
