Gregan cautious on gold

Brian Gregan feels ready for any challenge at the European Indoor Track and Field Championships in his bid to win his first senior international 400m medal in Gothenburg on March 1-3 as part of a strong Irish team.

Speaking at the launch of Powerade’s partnership with Athletics Ireland as official drink sponsor yesterday, Gregan was cautiously optimistic of taking gold.

“I’m targeting round after round. That’s what I’m telling everyone,” said Gregan. “I think that I need to get through the rounds before I can think about any kind of medal. If I get through to the final, then anything can happen.
