Huge congratulations to Daniel Downey who has just WON the All Ireland Schools 800m Daniel would have had big expectations on himself going into this stacked race, but did not let the pressure get to him Starting off at an even pace for the first lap, he sat in well and came through the first 400m in 65seconds. Hitting the bell Dan ran an unbelievable last 400m taking to the front with 250m to go and blistering the field with a 60s last lap! ️️
We are so proud of Daniel on this huge achievement! Not only did Daniel excel on the track he was also busy competing in the High Jump and finished an amazing 4th place on countback clearing a height of 1.70m! Congrats also to Dan’s Dad pictured here who coaches him! and of course to Ms. Mulhare
Have a great summer Daniel. Watch this space !
