Limerick hurdler Sarah Lavin produced the performance of her life over the weekend to all but assure herself a place at the Tokyo Olympics. 

On Saturday night in Madrid, the Emerald AC athlete became only the second Irishwoman in history (after Derval O'Rourke) to break 13 seconds for 100m hurdles, clocking 12.95 to finish second at the Continental Tour event.
