Sun 5 August 2012 by Francis Marsh –
Ciaran Farren finished 4th in 2:14.84 in the ‘D’ 800m race at the final Dublin Open meet of the season at Irishtown. Ciaran was just a second outside his pb, but had good experience of a tight graded 800m race, getting boxed at 500-650m before finding some space down the home straight to move up 2 positions. In the A 3000m, Francis Marsh placed 9th in 9:05.65 (SB and best since 2009). Conditions were dry with light head wind in home straight.
