The Munster Schools' Cross Country Finals  took place in Riverstick on Thursday.

Despite all the rain in the last few weeks,the ground conditions were remarkably good,so the races were fast and furious.

Caoimhe Flannery paced herself superbly throughout  the 3,000m course  and finished very strongly  to finish 2nd  out of the 44 qualifiers, from all over Munster.

With the first 15 individuals  and  3 teams qualifying for the All Ireland  Schools' Cross Country, Caoimhe will now  proceed to the finals in Belfast on March 7th.

Well done Caoimhe!
