Seamus steps out against world’s best
Seamus Clarke.
Athletics: On what was an historic week for Mayo sport, Moy Valley AC athlete Seamus Clarke was preparing meticulously to be in the best shape possible to compete in the World Under 20 Track and Field championships, which get underway this Wednesday in Eugene, Oregon, USA, and continue until next Sunday.
Having broken the Irish Under 20 race walking record in recent weeks, Seamus Clarke’s achievements show tremendous progress and a trajectory which empowers him to compete at global level. A winner of the Western People Young Sportsperson of the Year award in recent years, his on-track highlight of his career to date is the silver medal won at the European Under 18 Championships.
The step up from European to World level is a huge one but Seamus is ready to take to the starting line against the best in the world and all at his home club, Moy Valley AC, have sent their best wishes to Seamus on his travels.
