Dillon McEvory (2005O) shared with us the news that he had been selected to represent Ireland at the trail running World Championships, currently being held in Austria from 4th - 11th June.

He is running the 'Trail Long' which is 85km with an incredible +5500 metres of climbing.  Almost 1400 athletes including elite and amateurs from over 60 nations will compete in the heart of the Alps.

Another OD, Kane Reilly (2010K), pictured above on the left, has been selected to represent South Africa in the Trail Classic.

The 2023 World Mountain and Trail Running Championships will be streamed live on ORF Sports Plus, the event organizers website and social media channels (YouTube, Facebook).

We wish both athletes well in their gruelling events.
