BARR MAKES IT A PERFECT 10 AS ADELEKE SHINES IN SANTRY


The 150th edition of the Irish Life Health National Track and Field Championships closed a busy two day schedule in thrilling fashion with a host of breathtaking performances across the evening session in Morton Stadium(June 26th). Thomas Barr moved into double digits for national 400m hurdles titles, while Rhasidat Adeleke and Molly Scott provided fans in attendance with a breathtaking display of 100m sprinting, the pair being separated by the narrowest of margins

Barr (Ferrybank AC) showed all his class in the men’s 400m hurdle final, crossing the finish in 50.37 to claim his 10th national title in the gusty evening condititons. Barr looked controlled throughout the lap and no doubt has sights set on international success later in the summer with both World and European Championships on the horizon. Jack Mitchell of St. L. O'Toole AC continues to impress and followed Barr home in 51.64 to claim silver, while Thomas Pitkin of Clonliffe Harriers AC took bronze in 51.93

The women’s 400m hurdles final saw a super dual between Kelly McGrory (Tír Chonaill AC) and Nessa Millet (St Abbans AC) with the pair going stride for stride heading to the final hurlde. McGrory would find more in the run in, posting the lap of her life to clock a 57.22PB when it really mattered. Nessa Millet crossed in 58.08 for silver with McGrory’s clubmate Lucy McGlynn (Tír Chonaill AC) taking bronze in 1:00.00

The women’s 100m final was one of the most anticipated events of the weekend with the return of Rhasidat Adeleke (Tallaght AC) to national competition. The race didn’t disappoint with Molly Scott (St. L. O'Toole AC) pushing Adeleke all the way to the line with only the dip of Adeleke proving the difference in a dual which is sure to thrill Irish athletics fans for years to come. Adeleke crossed in 11.68, with Scott following in 11.69. Scott’s performance was made all the more impressive after an interrupted schedule in recent weeks. Joan Healy of Leevale AC claimed bronze with a superb performance of 11.77 into the headwind experienced by athletes through the day

Israel Olatunde (UCD AC) continues to stamp his dominance on the men’s 100m division in Ireland, backing up his 2021 title winning performance to yet again secure gold in a time of 10.51. The 20-year-old managed the heats, semi final, and final today like a seasoned sprinter and the next few years will be exciting as fans of athletics follow his pursuit of Paul Hession’s national record of 10.18.

Olatunde’s training partner, Joseph Ojewumi (Tallaght AC) claimed silver in 10.72 and looks another with another exciting sprints career ahead of him. The consistent Colin Doyle secured bronze for Leevale in 10.78

The women’s 400m final was a truly absorbing race with Olympic relay teammates Sophie Becker (Raheny Shamrock) and Phil Healy (Bandon AC) leaving everything on the track as they battled for gold in one of the finishes of the weekend. Becker would ultimately regain her 400m title in one of the performances of her career as she toppled the 2021 champion to claim her second national outdoor 400m title in 52.34. Cliodhna Manning (Kilkenny City Harriers AC) claimed third in another impressive display to cross in 53.05

Chris O'Donnell (North Sligo AC) showed why he’s third on the Irish 400m all time list with an accomplished display in the one lap decider. O’Donnell dominated the race from the gun and would secure his 4th national 400m title in 5 years with a time of 46.82 , dedicating the win to the late Ray Flynn. Olympian Marcus Lawler (Clonliffe Harriers AC) continued his progress in the 400m division to claim silver in 47.94, with Eanna Madden (Carrick-on-Shannon AC) claiming third in 48.11

The men’s 5000m race was another edge of the seat event, with the leading trio of Darragh McElhinney (UCD AC), Hiko Tonosa (DSD AC), and Efrem Gidey (Clonliffe Harriers) going toe to toe from the gun.  The three stars of Irish endurance running finally made a break from the pack thanks to a 2.44 minute kilometre as they moved within 8 laps of the finish

McElhinney’s kick would ultimately prove best, and he would storm clear to regain the 5,000m title which he won in 2020. The Glengarriff star would cross in 13:53.84. Hiko Tonosa left nothing out there in the defense of his 2021 title, ultimately having to settle silver in 13:55.97. Home favourite Efrem Gidey would cross in 13:57.40

The men’s 800m was another to have fans on their feet with the experience of Mark English (Finn Valley AC) coming to the fore in an exemplary show of 800m championship racing. English stayed patient and raced clear in convincing style over the final 50m to secure his 8th national senior title in 1:48.46. John Fitzsimons of Kildare AC went out on his shield in his bid to defend his 2021 title, crossing for silver in 1:49.10 ahead of Mark Milner (U.C.D. AC) who crossed in 1:50.58

There was also a masterclass of 800m tactical running by defending champion Louise Shanahan (Leevale AC) in a gun-to-tape performance. The national record holder controlled the pace from the front and never looked like being beat as she ran the kick out of a quality field behind her to cross in 2.10.90. Jenna Bromell (2.11.96) of Emerald AC was next to cross in a super run for silver, while Claire Mooney (Naas AC) out battled Olympian Sarah Healy to claim bronze in 2.12.18

Carla Sweeney (Rathfarnham W.S.A.F. AC) grabbed her opportunity to claim a national 1500m title, leaving nothing to chance by controlling the pace of the race in a brilliant display of front running (4:37.96). It was a bunched finish in the hunt for podium places with Maisy O’Sullivan (St Abbans) securing a gritty silver medal in 4.38.53, with Niamh Markham of Ennis Track Club following hot on her heels in 4:39.21

Cathal Doyle (Clonliffe Harriers AC) ran the bravest of races to claim his first national senior title in the men’s 1500m. Doyle was roared home by his Clonliffe clubmates in a tactical race that turned into a sprint coming into the final 200m. Doyle will collect the 2022 gold medal thanks to his 3:59.36. Shane Bracken (Swinford AC) stormed up the home straight to claim silver in 3:59.99, with Paul Robinson (St. Coca's AC) evoking memories of his 2019 win as he held off Luke McCann and Nick Griggs for the bronze in 4:00.23

There was no shortage of action in the field events during the evening session of day two. Conor Cusack (Lake District AC) took the honours in the men’s javelin with a 64.55m throw, while Kate O’Connor (Dundalk St. Gerards AC) dominated the women’s competition with a winning throw of 50.93m

David Cussen (Old Abbey AC) took the men’s high jump title with a Irish season leading clearance of 2.10m. Conall Mahon of Tír Chonaill AC claimed the men’s triple jump title, claiming the gold on a countback thanks to his best of 14.68m

The thrills and spills of the 4x400m relays signed of action of the 150th edition of these championships, with Ratoath AC taking the penultimate title of the day in a time of 3:56.06. The honour of last gold medal of the championships fell upon Emerald AC who crossed in 3:18.34, narrowly behind the Irish U20 team in 3.17.86

CALLINAN KEENAN TAKES GOLD IN POLE VAULT THRILLER

Fans in attendance at the 150th edition of the Irish Life Health National Track and Field Champiosnhips were treated to a thrilling competiton in the men’s pole vault this afternoon, with Matthew Callinan Keenan (St. L. O'Toole AC) eventually coming out on top to win his first national senior title with 4.50m clearance in tough conditions.

The pole vaulters had arguable the worst weather conditions of the day, but the heavy rain and wind did not dampen the brilliant competition on show. Matthew Callinan Keenan (St. L. O'Toole AC) and Michael Bowler (Enniscorthy AC) had the crowd on their feet with both athletes clearing 4.50m, Callinan Keenan taking home the gold medal on countback. The duo were pushed all the way by 2021 championship Conor Callinan of Leevale who bowed out with a best of 4.30m for bronze

On the track, double Olympian Michelle Finn (Leevale AC) secured her 8th national 3000m steeplechase title in the tough conditions. Finn went out hard from the gun, using a strong wind down the back straight to open up a sizable advantage, crossing the finish in 9.57.73. It was the 5th title in a row for the Leevale star who had already secured an automatic qualifying time for the European Championships which take place in Munich from August 15th. Following Finn home for silver was Aine Burke (St. Coca's AC) in 12:19.81

The walks started the track action on day 2 with those in attendance treated to a World class performance from Perseus Kalstrom (Togher AC) in the 10k walk, clocking an astonishing 37.57.10 in the brutal windy conditions.  Callum Lewis Wilkinson (Togher AC) crossed the finish line in second in 39:55.69, while David Kenny (Farranfore Maine Valley AC) crossed in third in 42:22.01. Kenny already boasts a qualification time for the World and European championships in what is sure to be a busy summer for the Farranfore star

Kate Veale (West Waterford AC) claimed her 7th senior outdoor title in the women’s 5000m, crossing in 23:31:13 from Siobhan Doherty (Tír Chonaill AC) and Ruth Monaghan (Sligo AC) in second and third respectively

Back in the field events Eoin Sheridan (Clonliffe Harriers AC) posted a brilliant Irish season leading throw of 53.80m to take the national discus title, while Anna Gavigan (LSA) took the title in a brilliant women’s competition, her penultimate attempt of 46.22m proving her best of the day

Ruby Millet (St Abbans AC) regained her long jump title from 2019, leaping a massive 6.58m (+6.2m/s). Sarah McCarthy of Mid Sutton AC claimed silver with a best jump of 6.11m, while Kate O’Connor (Dundalk St. Gerards AC) also cleared the six meters with a best of 6.02m

The action continues in Morton Stadium throughout this evening with a host of finals down for decision. Irish athletics stars including Thomas Barr (Ferrbank AC 400mH Final 6.50pm), Sarah Healy (UCD AC 800m Final 7.00pm), Mark English (Finn Valley 800m Final 7.15pm), Rhasidat Adeleke (Tallaght AC 100m Final 7.45pm), and many more will take to the track later today having all safely made it through their respective heats

LAVIN SHOWS CLASS TO TAKE NATIONAL TRACK TITLE

Tokyo Olympian Sarah Lavin (Emerald AC) secured her 7th outdoor national title in tough conditions on day 1 of the 150th edition of the Irish Life Health national track and field championships in Morton Stadium this afternoon

Lavin showed all her class and experience in dealing with the strong headwind, taking the 100m hurdles title in a time of 14.06. The World indoor finalist is set to be back in action in the heats of the 100m tomorrow afternoon (2.20pm). Kate Doherty (Dundrum South Dublin AC 14.64 ) secured the 100mH silver medal, with Sarah Quinn (St. Colmans South Mayo AC 14.94) taking the bronze

Matthew Behan (Crusaders AC) won his first national 110mH title, crossing in 15.61. Behan denied Gerard O'Donnell (Carrick-on-Shannon AC) his 6th national 100mH title in a row, with O’Donnell having to settle for second in 15.63. David Dagg of Dundrum South Dublin claimed bronze in 16.83

Mark Smyth (Raheny Shamrock) stormed to the men’s 200m title, racing clear in the final 50m to cross in 21.95. The race for silver and bronze ended in a blanket finish with Andrew Egan (Galway City Harriers AC 22.41) and Luke Morris (Emerald AC 22.44) dipping best at the line to claim silver and bronze respectively

Olympian Robert McDonnell (Galway City Harriers) who would have been one of the likely favourites to medal had to unfortunately pull up in the earlier heats

Lauren Cadden (Sligo AC) claimed her first national senior outdoor title in the women’s 200m. Cadden battled brilliantly with Sarah Leahy of Killarney Valley coming up the home straight, Cadden eventually crossing for first in 24.94. Leahy battled on bravely to cross in 25.06, with Roseanna McGukian (City of Lisburn AC) taking bronze in 25.38

The first track medals of the day went the way of Jayme Rossiter in the men’s 3000m steeplechase. Rossiter (Clonliffe Harriers AC) claimed the win in dramatic style, with the Clonliffe athlete staying in contention throughout and did well to avoid a late fall to take the win on home turf, crossing in 9.26.43. Liam Harris of Togher closed all the way to the line to finish was in 9.26.64, while Finley Daly of Sligo was third in 9.27.29

The men’s hammer were the first field medals on offer on day 1. Sean Mockler (Moycarkey Coolcroo) continues to impress and posted a best of 65.33m into the teeth of the wind. Brendan O’Donnell (Lifford Strabane AC 61.07m) was second and Simon Galligan (Clonliffe Harriers AC 59.53m) third

Michaela Walsh (Swinford AC) retained her title in the women’s shot put with a best penultimate throw of 14.58m. Casey Mulvey (Inny Vale AC 13.58m) was second with multi-event star Kate O’Connor of Dundalk St. Gerards AC third (13.42m)

Saragh Buggy (St Abbans) claimed her 10th national outdoor title in the women’s triple jump with a best of 12.92m. Buggy will return to action for tomorrow’s long jump final where she will come up against her clubmate Ruby Millet in what should be a brilliant competition

The pole vaulters had a tough day of competition with a gusty crosswind making conditions extremely challenging. It didn’t stop the great form of Una Brice (Leevale AC) who secured gold with a 3.55m clearance. Clodagh Walsh (Abbey Striders AC 3.35m) was second, with Abbie O’Neill (Ballymena & Antrim AC 3.25m) third

In the heats of the 800m, Sarah Healy (UCD AC), Louise Shanahan (Leevale AC), Claire Mooney (Naas AC), and Jenna Bromell (Emerald AC) all safety progressed to tomorrow’s final which is set for 7.00pm. On the men’s side, Mark English (Finn Valley), John Fitzsimons (Kildare AC), and Harry Purcell all comfortably quailed for their respective final set for 7.15pm tomorrow

The action continues in in Morton Stadium throughout this evening with the final of the women’s 5000m and the reappearance of Thomas Barr in heats of the 400m hurdles set whet the appetite for another feast of athletics competition tomorrow
