Hayde destroys Sonia record held since 1987

It was another day of records at the Irish Life Health/Munster Schools’ Championships which took place in blustery conditions at Cork IT.

A number of those records came in the intermediate girls grade, the most impressive being the 2:07.74 established by Aimee Hayde from St Mary’s, Newport in the 800m, which was also a European Youth Olympic (EYOF) qualifying mark.
