A new name on the Craig Lynch Cup. @DeanAdams13 has kept good care of it for 2 years. Could be a few years before @IsraelOlatunde5 has to give it back. The man himself would have approved. Great to have Sharon, Joanna & Amy there to present it.

Jack Raftery @DonoreHarriers is at his 1st majors. To any kid who was down the field at recent All-Irelands or didn’t even qualify, a quote from Gerry Naughton, Jack’s underage coach. ‘Was 27th out of 47 at the Dublin u14s & now he is going to the Worlds’ Don’t stop believing

Context on how good 3:12 was for Irish mixed team: If a men’s team replicated what Cillin/Chris did, it’s 2:59.5 (current NR=3:01.2) Women team replicated what Phil/Sophie did, it’s 3:26.5 (NR=3:27.4) Potential for 3 x Irish Teams at future global champs & medals at Euros.

Big well done to @sophiebecker_ who anchored the Irish 4 x 200 team to a second place finish at the World Relays in Poland tonight. Back to training now in prep for the rest of the outdoor season.

It’s a Grade C meet so big World Ranking points, a win at Nationals in June in a good time and it’s pretty much Olympic qualification in the bag.

Sad to report the passing of Tony O'Donoghue distinguished statistician and chronicler of our sport's history. For many years Tony was an RTE commentator and called Eamonn Coghlan's historic world 5000 metres from Helsinki 1983

David McCarthy doing a great job with the womens 4x400 programme this year. Squad are 9th in the World, highest ever achieved by an Irish team, in Year 1 of the cycle. Need a team name now. The 🇵🇱 are Charlie’s Angels, the 🇧🇪 are the Cheetahs. Red’s Arrows? Too 🇬🇧 🤔

Fair play to @bridgolden for identifying Sommer Lecky and her coach Niall Wilkinson for candidates for a mentoring programme a few years back. NR holder Deirdre Ryan was involved. Shows the benefit of coach support. Great athlete and coach combo getting support at the pointy end
