The U/20 mile races at Morton Games, once again kindly supported by the Jerry Kiernan Foundation, have always provided great opportunities for young athletes to experience the atmosphere of an international track and field meet at home. The 2024 races provided a great opening to the meet, the men’s mile race was won by Sean Cronin of the host club Clonliffe Harriers and the women’s by Gemma Galvin of Ennis TC. These U/20 races quite clearly provide a stepping stone for young athletes, it is noteworthy that 10 years ago finishing 5th was Cathal Doyle, last year Cathal took the big one, winning the Morton mile in a time of 3.52.06!
