I remember him nailing 3:34 in a backwoods race in Belgium to qualify for the Worlds - and then went all the way the final when he got there (was he 10th?)
Always had an interesting take on things too - definitely a nonconformist. He had some very tough times with our good friend Alberto too.
RIP Ciarán
Ah that’s awful news. Would have known him a bit (not closely) growing up. Remember him doing rings of the Castle park in Macroom while lads his age were downing cans watching on thinking he was daft.
Cathal Dennehy’s article really lays out what an almost torturous career he had.
