Sarah Healy broke a third Irish indoor record on consecutive weekends with a superb performance to finish second at the Keely Klassic in Birmingham today, the 24-year-old Dubliner clocking 4:01.62 to finish second in the 1500m behind training partner and Olympic medallist Georgia Hunter Bell (4:00.63.) 

That carved over two seconds off the previous Irish indoor record of 4:03.83 which Healy set in February last year. It continues a huge start to the season for Healy, who broke the Irish indoor 3000m record twice in recent weeks, clocking 8:35.19 at the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix in Boston before lowering that to 8:30.79 at the Millrose Games in New York last weekend.
