Well done to sprinter John Walkin who finished with a bronze medal in the Senior 60 metres at Connacht Indoors Championships. He ran 7.68  – his second fastest time in the last five years. John was troubled by a groin strain going into the race and had to ease down over last 15-20 metres and coast to the  line. He felt he could have got under 7.6 if fully fit.
