Back to life, back to reality. For Israel Olatunde, the dizzying highs of last week had to be left behind eventually, though it’s fair to say the 20-year-old Dundalk sprinter is still basking in the glow of his achievement.

But yesterday he was back in the office, finishing up his internship with KPMG. In the weeks ahead he’ll pack his bags and move to UCD, his final year there being the first he won’t have to commute to class each day.
