Visually impaired runner among the elite at women’s mini-marathon in Dublin

Niamh Delaney, who is visually impaired, found herself among the elite runners at the end of the women’s mini-marathon in Dublin yesterday.

“My vision is quite blurry, but I was able to follow the track. I had a guide with me, but I lost her,” said Niamh from Co Laois.

“I thought I would do well because I have been practising hard for the event over the last year,” she said.
