•Galway native Nicola Duncan of Taylor’s Hill, who is now based in Edinburgh, ran a European Championship Marathon qualifying time on Sunday in the Amsterdam Marathon. She ran a phenomenal time of 2 hrs 36 minutes and 44 seconds, which is well within the standard for the championships in Zurich of 2hrs 38.
