Ciara Mageean lowers her own Irish Senior 800m record in her season’s debut in Manchester as she finishes second to teenage sensation Phoebe Gill.

Ciara Mageean lowered her own Irish senior 800m record in her season’s debut in Manchester on Saturday.

Mageean had travelled to Manchester from her training base in St Moritz to open her Olympic year and although she has no plans to run the 800m in Paris this summer, her time was well under the qualification standard. However she couldn’t catch Gill in the closing stages as the 17 year-old continued her rich vein of form.
