Vote of congratulations for Mullingar Harriers

A vote of congratulations was passed with Mullingar Harriers on their successes at the European Cross-country championships in Abbottstown, at the December meeting of the Municipal District of Mullingar Kinnegad.

Cllr Emily Wallace applauded Cormac Dalton, who represented Mullingar Harriers and Ireland in the Senior Men’s, Jamie Battle, who, with him team mates, brought home gold in the U23s team event, and their coach, Joe Ryan.

She spoke of the great achievement it was for a small club like Mullingar Harriers and remarked that their representatives were competing against “big, big names”.

She expressed the hope that in 2022, a ceremony could be held to acknowledge the achievements of Mullingar Harriers and the work that goes on behind the scenes.
