Limping over the line in an unpleasant 54’40 finish at the VHI Mini Marathon.
But what a day watching women running for themselves, running for charities, just putting one foot in front of the other and willing each other on. Priceless. 💜

The “Rorycoaster” is heading to a playoff. Stunning. @malachyclerkin.bsky.social is still hyperventilating over on the live blog…
Enduring those lows
Optimising those highs
Rorrrryyyyy ⛳️💚
“Now look. Everybody calm down. If you don’t love double-bogey-on-the-first Rory, you don’t deserve eagle-on-the-15th Rory.” - @malachyclerkin.bsky.social with an important intervention! Follow along here…
Will we still be hooked at midnight!? ⛳️ 💚🤞

Who are the inspiring women in your life? We’re spoilt for choice! 😄✨

You nailed it 💙⚪️

As a Monaghan GAA fan, it’s very confusing to hear of a young Tommy Freeman making a run on the wing (then having to remind yourself not to stand to applaud because, well, he’s playing for England) …
England v Ireland 🏴 🇮🇪
Farney Army back to winning ways!
60pc of the participants at the BT Young Scientist were girls this year. And the winners are three amazing sisters who have the potential to save lives and inspire the next STEM era of See It, Be It. A privilege to get to interview them at the Gala to end the 61st exhibition. 🙌🎉
🎉🚨This is just wonderful news in a year when 60pc of participants are girls!! Three Kerry sisters win BT Young Scientist top prize 🏆
“The greatest fulfilment for yourself and others can be when you locate your contribution within a commitment for the welfare of all global citizens”, @president.ie told young scientists today. Amazing morning spent with future focussed young innovators and committed business leaders. 🙌
