10) Medal rush for #Ireland on the final day of the Euro Champs at #Apeldoorn2025

11) Mark English advances to the #800m final at #Apledoorn in a continuation of his fine form this indoor season
I’d say it was a solid outing. Could be that Boru was thinking if I’d just tied my PB, I would have been in the final
10) Excellent effort from Bori Akinola today in the 60m at #Apeldoorn2025. Just a couple of 1/100s short of making the final
9) Disappointing day yesterday for Sharlene Mawdsley after the prior evening impressive leg in the mixed relay
Main thing here is to stay healthy. There is much time to go in 2025 and an outdoor World Champs

8) Sarah Healy advances comfortably to the 3000m final from this morning’s heats at #Apeldoorn2025
7) Sarah Lavin finishes in that painful 4th spot while running a season best of 7.92 in the 60m Hurdles at the Euro Champs
6) Ireland finishes 5th at the European Indoor Champs in the mixed relay. Stellar sub 50 second closing leg by Sharlene Mawsdley not enough to get on the podium
5) Day 1 at #Apleldoorn2025 is in the books. Ian O’Riordan with the update from @irishtimes.com 
No #MixedRelay heroics this time around for #IrishAthletics despite an impressive 400m split from Sharlene Mawdsley
3) I'm a little late getting this report out, which featured a busy week for Irish #TrackAndField athletes competing in the American Collegiate conferences

“#women have edged steadily closer to Bannister’s mark. The current world record, set by Kenya’s three-time Olympic 1,500-meter champion #FaithKipyegon in 2023, is 4:07.64. Her corresponding 1,500-meter world record of 3:49.04 is equivalent to a #mile in roughly 4:06.5”
"calculations suggests that #Kipyegon could dip under four only under the most perfect conditions. But how close to perfection can we get in the real world?” https://run.outsideonline.com/general/woman-break-four-minute-mile/
