Athletics: Ciarán Ó Lionáird aiming for sub-four-minute mile

Ciarán Ó Lionáird bids to become the first man to break four minutes for the mile indoors on Irish soil at the star-studded Athlone International this evening. 

The Leevale man is looking forward to getting a true test of his fitness after what he considers a successful altitude training camp in Flagstaff, Arizona in January.

He ran the anchor 1600m leg for the Irish distance medley relay team that finished second to the USA in a new world record.
