English goes in semi as Flanagan finishes 14th


It’s set to be another  busy day for the Irish at the European Championships in Munich.

Among them, Finn Valley’s Mark English runs in the semi finals of the men’s 800 metres this evening.

The former European medalist won his heat yesterday and is due back on track in the second semi just after 7.30pm.

Highland’s Athletic Correspondent Patsy McGonagle feels Mark is in a good place…

 

Elsewhere, Ciara Mageean bids for silverware in the women’s 1500 metres final before 8.

Just back to last night, Finn Valley’s Roisin Flanagan finished 14th in the final of the 5000m.

Her time of 15mins 33.72sec was close to her personal best, just two weeks ago at the Commonwealth Games she ran a new Donegal record with 15min 26.76sec.
