Four Irish athletes won medals at the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham.

Sarah Healy said that crossing the line in fifth in last night’s 15-hundred metres left her “a bit frustrated.”

It was another memorable evening for heptathlon gold medalist Kate O’Connor and 15-hundred metres bronze medalist Andrew Coscoran as their medal ceremonies took place.
