Wishing Faye Gallagher the very best of luck as she wears her countrys colours tomorrow.
Faye is on the Irish Team running in the 19th International U18 Mountain Running Cup in Lecce, Italy. Temperatures are 30+ so going to be tough but we have no doubt Faye will do us proud.
Best of luck Faye 🇨🇮🔴⚫️
