Paul Hession was in superb form yet again when representing Ireland in the European Cup of Athletics in Tallin, Estonia on Saturday. Paul ran the 100m and won, easing down, in 10.30 seconds. The wind reading was marginally over the legal limit but this is yet another pointer to what will hopefully be a great season to come.

GCH thrower, Sean Breathnach threw a season's best of 15.42 in the Shot Putt at the same event.
