Tir Chonaill AC’s Shane Toolan (second from left) helped the Irish O65 mixed relay team to set a new age group world record at the National Master Indoor Championships.
Toolan was joined by Edel Maguire, Shane Sheridan and Deirdre McFerran, who stopped the clock in 2:00.85 at TUS in Athlone.
The time edged the quartet past the previous best, the 2:00.93 set by Sweden’s Ottosson, Tolfes, Cocke and Pilgard in Gothenburg back in January.
