    Whatever happen to Davy Wilson? I remember he was been spoken as the next Seb Coe.

    Thanks for that PK!!

    Yes, I was the Raheny Shamrock guy coming 3rd. Back then Raheny had 3 runners in the 800m final!!!

    No, they didn't have Youtube back then, but they had VHS. That was before RTE started using pundits to comment an anaylse every detail of every race. I watched the report from RTE, and it basically went from event to event, with no commentary from anybody -a lot more enjoyable. Nobody being told that they needed to "move up a distance". That was also the day when Mark Carroll burst onto the scene in the 1500m. Sonia also won the womens 800m that day.

    As for David Wilson, dont know what ever happened to him... or to Davey Wilson (not the same person).
