    Ciara didn't look as comfortable as I thought she would. I wonder is she in a training block 'running on tired legs'? I was surprised Kerry caught her too, at 150m to go, both looked equally shattered but Kerry's strength bested Ciara's speed....There were a couple of short but leg-sapping segments of mud along the course and I'd say this is where steeplechase strength/training came to the fore.

    Very true, 8k XC is no joke and Kerry O'Flaherty has a mountain running background so that would have to start to her as well as the steeplechase strength.

    I imagine between travel and the race in his legs from last week he was probably eyeing just making the team and freshening up for 2 weeks time.

    Yeah, when I seen his results from Dehli I thought he might struggle a little but still expected him to finish in the top 3.
