Athletics: O'Sullivan confirmed for Ballycotton

The 24th running of the Ballycotton 10 road race next month is set to be the highest-profile ever, despite its postponement due to foot-and-mouth in March.

Race organisers have secured the presence of former world cross-country champion Sonia O'Sullivan, who is being brought to the East Cork coastal resort by Nike, who sponsor both the race and the athlete.
