The National cross country champs is always one of the biggest races on the Irish calendar, with national titles and European selection on the line it makes for a great spectacle. Like many others my goal for the winter was to get back on an Irish team. It’s been over three years since I raced in an Irish vest and five years since I raced at the European Cross Country champs.
At this years champs I came with more of a relaxed approach knowing if I made the team it was a bonus and if I didn’t it was straight back to work. Now that I’ve made the team it still doesn’t change the long term goals but also at the same time it’s important I go represent Ireland as best as I can and try do my part in helping the team try bring home medals.
