European Swimming Championships 2010

Marvinthefish

First day of the championships in Budapest today and several Irish swimmers in action. (Well, first day of swimming in the pool. I know we had some open-water swimmers last week) http://www.europeanchampionships.org/Budapest_2010/

Ryan Harrison, Grainne Murphy, Andrew Bree, Barry Murphy and Melanie Nocher all swam in the heats this morning.

Grainne Murphy and Nocher through to 400m IM final and 200m Back semi-final respectively.

Barry Murphy placed 35th in the 100m Breast. Bree was 43rd in the same event. Murphy has tweeted that he thinks it was a good start to the meet.

I'm sorry but I don't recognise Smith's medals.

Grainne came 12th this morning in the 400m Free and misses the final. Tired I'm sure after a long hard week.

Yup. Her 400m split in the 800 final was faster than that.

Was away for the past weekend. Luckily I managed to see the 1500m final on TV. Fantastic performance, well done Grainne.

Congrats to Grainne Murphy, great swimming altogether......Btw does anyone know what's happened to Aisling Cooney? Was a young swimmer at Beijing 2 years ago and would have expected her to be on the team at the Europeans? Is she injured maybe?

Unpossible

Great to see our swimmers doing well, well done to the whole team.

I think Aisling Cooney is injured. But I am not certain.
Her coach was ill recently and she moved to the High Performance Centre in Limerick to train until he got better. He is now better and she has moved back to Dublin to train with him again.

There are another few to watch out for in the years to come, Syrenika Mc Mahon from Ulster(Leander Swim club I think & dont quote me on the spelling of her first name!!) and Shauna Smith who moved from Germany to train in Limerick (one of her parents is Irish and the other German-not sure which and she grew up in Germany so its a big move to make) who both have good potential.
Syrenika broke some Irish records at the Euro Junior championships this summer(some set by Grainne Murphy last summer) so the future is very bright for Irish swimming...

shauna father is irish and is swim trainer in berlin germany, training young swimmers very successfully for years her mother is german
