Ireland’s team for Helsinki reduced to 11 as injury forces Gillick out
The European indoor 400m champion, who has been plagued by a hamstring injury since late June, missed the national championships and was not fit to participate in Saturday’s Dublin International Games at Morton Stadium.
Along with James Nolan (1,500m), who missed the nationals due to an Achilles tendon problem, and Paul Hession (200m), who was recovering from a back injury, Gillick had been given the opportunity to prove his fitness at that meet.
