BIOGRAPHY

Sarah gave early notice of her talent by ripping up Ireland’s underage records and winning European medals at U18, U20 and U23 level. She was just 20 when she made her Olympic debut in Tokyo but is finding her form now at senior level, taking down the long-standing Irish senior indoor 1500m/3000m records this season, when she also ran an 800m PB of 2:00.86 outdoors. She just missed out on a 1500m final spot at 2023 World Championships where she clocked an Irish U23 record. Her 3:57.49 in the Diamond League in Paris on July 7 then knocked over two seconds off her lifetime best and put her second fastest on the Irish all-time list behind Ciara Mageean. Sarah has a law degree from UCD and moved to Wigan in mid-2023 where she is a member of the M11 Track Club; a world-class training group that includes the Olympic 800m silver medallist Keely Hodgkinson.
