We were delighted to welcome Steven Macklin to Irishtown on Sunday morning where he put together a comprehensive presentation for the Coaching team as we start preparations for the 2015 Cross Country season.

Steven (who is the National Junior Endurance Coach) brought the group through the various facets of Middle Distance training including updates on Dynamic Warm ups and Mobility drills along with advice on current training programmes with the coaching team.

Steven also gave us a great insight into his work with the High Performance squads at Junior and U23 level.

The club would like to thank him for his excellent contribution as we get “up and running” for the new campaign.
