Rathfarnham WSAF AC’s Sean Hehir had a great run to finish 25^th in the European Marathon Championships 2018 on August 12^th in Berlin. He ran 2:18:58 in hot conditions to be the 3^rd Irishman home and part of the Irish team who finished 6^th overall, the best result ever by an Irish team in a European Championships marathon. The whole club is delighted and inspired with his great performance particularly the way he has come back fighting after illness denied him on delivering to his full potential in the World Championships last year. Onwards and upwards Sean! Oh, and we still recognised you in the Dave Wottle hat!!
