Olympic stars to shine in Cork

With several Olympians expected to take to the track, the women’s 400m race is shaping up to be the main attraction at the 61st Cork City International Sports at Cork Institute of Technology on Tuesday evening.

Silver medallist from Beijing in 2008, Shericka Williams from Jamaica, is a confirmed runner along with former winner at the sports, Moushaumi Robinson of the USA.

They will come up against some serious home competition however, with a number of Team Ireland’s 4x400m relay team competing, including Cork native Marian Heffernan.
