Ennis Track’s Kevin Mulcaire just missed out on a bronze medal finishing an agonising fourth in the 5,000m in 14:39.14 at the European Junior Athletics Championships in Sweden.
Kevin was always in contention in a tactical race that only got going with two laps remaining. He got gapped slightly but then bridged the gap to be in the hunt for a medal. Unfortunately he got detached with 200m remaining with Britain’s Alex George taking the win in 14:34.42.
