Qualifier for Europeans & NEW Club Record
Crusader Thomas Chamney added his name to the list of Irish qualifiers for the European Championships. Chamney took a training spell in Barcelona to prepare for a race in Germany where he took a whopping 0.8 off his previous personal best running 1:46.82.
This time is also a new Crusaders AC Club Record, beating Ronnie Delaneys time of 1:47.2 which he ran in 1957. Delaney still holds the records for the mile and the 1500.
