These tables have been compiled by Fintan Hourihan, our Director of Athletics, and are correct as of 23 August 2024.
In a few cases we have not been able to get some data such as times or exact dates (when you see 1 January of any year, that is because we only know the year when that event happened). We would love to get any errors or typos corrected. If you have an eagle eye and spot something, please get onto Fintan at directorofathletics@dsdathletics.ie.
Thanks!
