Sarah Lavin brought the curtain down on a thrilling final day of the 151st edition of the 123.ie National Track and Field Championships (July 30th).

Lavin remarkably set three personal best performances on her way to today’s 100m gold, made all the more remarkable having claimed the 100m hurdles title only 24 hours previous.

The Emerald AC star saved her best performance of the day for this evening’s sprint final, clocking a lifetime best of 11.53 to make her own bit of championship history. Lucy May Sleeman followed Lavin home for a superb silver in 11.85, while Mollie O’Reilly (Dundrum South Dublin AC) continued her run of ultra-consistent performances to claim bronze in 11.86.
