Finn Valley athlete Roisin Flanagan was part of Team Ireland which arrived in Glasgow today ahead of World Athletics Indoor Championships.
The championships take place at the Emirates Arena in Glasgow from 1-3 March.
The Irish team will join over 600 athletes from 130 nations. The championships welcome a star-studded entry list which contains twenty reigning world champions and seven gold medallists from the Tokyo Olympics.
Irish fans will have to wait until the evening session on day 2 to cheer on Roisin who is set to take her place in a stacked women’s 3,000m final.
Flanagan, who is based in Colorado in the United States, recently set an Irish record over 2 Miles (9:36.70) when competing at the Millrose Games on February 11th in New York.
Her previous major track championship experience came at the 2022 European Championships in Munich where she finished 14th in the 5000m, a position that she looks well capable of bettering on Saturday.
