DUAIS ÒR EILE DO RIONNAG RHODES!
Tha Eilidh NicChoinnich, a bhuannaich bonn òr as an 800m agus am bonn umha anns an 1500m ann an Rhodes 2007, air bonn òr eile a’ ghlèidheadh a-nochd ann am farpais 1500m ann an Åland. Seo a’ chiad bonn òr a tha Sgioba nan Eilean Siar air a’ ghlèidheadh aig Geamannan 2009 tha e air togail mhòr a thoirt dhaibh uile. Bha Eilidh as a’ chiad àite a’ dol a-steach dhan am farpais, ged nach d’ fhuair i faisg air an t-àm bhon chlàr pearsanta aice.
‘S ann aig 7.50f, àm ionadail, a thòisich an rèis agus bha e mìorbhaileach a bhith a’ coimhead Eilidh a’ ruith. Bha i a’ coimhead comhfhurtail agus làidir tron rèis agus crìochnaich e leis an ùine 4.34.83, gu math air thoiseach air na farpaisich eile. Thuirt Eilidh:
“Bha mi gu math toilichte leis mar a ruith mi, thug na caileagan eile deagh rèis dhomh agus ‘s e rèis math dha rìreabh a bha ann. Bha Rachael Franklin a chrìochnaich as an dàrna àite air mo ghualainn fad na h-ùine. Chùm mi orm airson agus airson an 600m mu dheireadh bha mi a’ smaoineachadh ‘na tèid seachad orm’”.
Nas tràithe air an fheasgar chluinnear fonn Sgioba nan Eilean Siar, ‘Bays of Harris’ ann an Ionad Wiklöf nuair a chaidh Alison Caimbeul suas airson am bonn umha bho farpais an 10,000m agus bha e na thlachd a chluinntinn a-rithist agus Eilidh a’ nochdadh air an àrd ùrlar airson am bonn òr aice a ghleidheadh – agus gu dearbha bha i airidh air! Bidh i a’ farpais madainn Diardaoin anns a’ chiad chuairt de farpais 800m. Bidh sinn beò an dòchas na Bays of Harris a chluinntinn a-rithist!
