Waterford - Race walker Kate Veale features on RTE News programme...

There was a short but interesting clip on the RTE Six-One News on Tuesday, the 30th of November featuring the race-walker Kate Veale from West Waterford AC. Kate is just 16 years old yet she has already represented Ireland at the Youth Olympic Games in Singapore this year finishing in a very credible 4th position. Despite being just outside the medals, she still managed to set a new Irish record for the 5 km.

Please note that the video clip which is available from the RTE Player service will probably not last too long so try and watch it as soon as you can.

Instructions....
1) Go to this link....http://www.rte.ie/player/#v=1086024
2) Press play and you'll have to watch the ad's...
3) Once the News starts, click on the box near the bottom right for 'Full Screen'.
4) Note that the News is around 49 minutes long. Drag the slider at the bottom up as far as 41:20 and then wait for the relevant section to start.

Kate was also in action in Derry last Sunday (...running this time!) in the All Ireland Cross Country Championships where she won the U18 race.
