Ireland women win team bronze medal

The Irish women’s cross-country team performed brilliantly at Leopardstown racecourse today to claim the bronze medal in the team event.

The team was lead by Sonia O’Sullivan on her return to competitive racing after a long lay-off and she put in a battling display to finish in seventh place. Veteran campaigner, Anne-Keenan Buckley, ran an excellent race to finish 10th while Rosemary Ryan was 19th and Maria McCambridge was place 62nd.
