Mick Clohisey puts Rio disappointment behind him with impressive finish in London

Irish athlete Mick Clohisey enjoyed a highly-creditable 22nd place in the men’s marathon at the World Athletics Championships on Day Three in London today.

After making it through in fourth place in his first round heat at the Olympic Stadium, 400m hurdles runner Thomas Barr raced out to join the rest of the Irish team in supporting Clohissey and Sean Hehir at Tower Bridge for the 26-mile classic.
