Mighty Quinn chasing more glory at Tullamore

Quinn, son of the Irish steeplechase record holder and Olympian, Brendan, ran 8:24 for the distance at the Irish Milers Club meet in Irishtown last week — John Treacy was the only other Irish youth to have bettered that mark.

On that basis, a second 3,000m title should be his for the taking with Jake Byrne (St Joseph’s, Rochfortbridge), Liam Brady (St Brendan’s Birr) and Tommy Casey (Sligo Grammar School) his nearest challenges.
