Sunday brings another packed day of Irish athletics across Britain, the United States, and at home in Cork. From a sprint-heavy meet in Stratford to one of America’s most famous road races, there’s no shortage of green vests to follow.
As ever, a reminder: start lists can be a bit like weather forecasts, promising sunshine one minute and thunderclouds the next. Athletes can scratch, switch events, or vanish without warning. On we go.
