This day 10 years ago was a particularly sad day for our club as we lost our mentor and friend Seamie Weldon. Seamie was a man who dedicated his life to athletics. He ran for the club, coached in the club and was a member of our club’s committee holding many positions over the years until his death in 2014. But the legacy that Seamie has left behind still continues today as we too strive to bring the joy and fun of athletics to the children and youth of the immediate and wider communities of Ardee and in celebration of the life of this man who inspired athletics to so many of our young and dedicated so much to our club we hold the hugely successful ‘Seamie Weldon Memorial 5K & 10K on the first Saturday every September – This year, on September 7th 2024. Rest in Peace Seamie and Thank You.
