The last leg was a great run. He dug in.
That’s why in 4x4 you can get away without your fastest going last. Being in front to be chased is always easier that coming from behind

Sonia not filling me with confidence here. Rob is all on board the positivity train.
Sonia is a realist. It’s not time for that.
It’s time for dreaming.
My uncle is home from Canada at the moment. There’s a crowd gathered at the parents’ place down home to watch this. Never thought there’d be someone from our little parish in a final!
RTÉ commentators are having a ball. Real fans.
Brilliant.
Here’s hoping !
Spotakova the GOAT takes bronze.
Come on Ireland
Full stadium. The atmosphere is electric.
Let’s fucking do this
RTE pundits have a history of bigging up our representatives ahead of finals before they fall flat on their face.
Ailish McSweeney saying Catherina McKiernan would win the 10k at the 1994 Europeans (she flopped) and Eamon Coghlan saying Sonia would destroy the field minutes before her disaster in Atlanta spring to mind.
They were realistic about Elbows Shanahan’s prospects in the 800 metres but not realistic enough.
In saying that, I think our girls will win this. Ireland Ireland Ireland.
I predict an awful unlucky 4th. I hope I’m wrong
Greg bringing us back down to earth here lads.
Too much to do after leg 2
Rhasidat is a future Olympic medal winner. What a leg
Sensational again from her
Different gravy
