In her first track race since the conclusion of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Tipperary's Sharlene Mawdsley ended her season with a win in Switzerland last night.
The Newport AC runner emerged victorious in the Women’s 400 metres at the Gala dei Castelli.
Mawdsley came ahead of Susanne Gogl-Walli and Lieke Klaver with a time of 51.34 seconds.
This is the first competitive race Mawdlsey has competed in since the Women's 4x400m relay team narrowly missed out on a medal position at the Paris Games after finishing fourth in the final.
Luke McCann was just eight-tenths of a second off Mark English’s national best in placing second in the Men’s 800-metres.
English himself was third in that race.
Sarah Lavin was fifth in the Women’s 100-metre hurdles, a race won by the Olympic bronze medalist Jasmine Camacho-Quinn.
