OUT OF BLUE COMES GREEN
The middle plain.
Stablemate and PB machine “Burly” Brendan Sheehan sliced another 51” off his best at the Seville Half-Marathon, taking 261st spot overall.
Savouring the balmy, 10°C sunny climes, our man clocked a gladiatorial 73:58—all hail super Sheehan!
The Stable News’ jack-of-all-trades, Ally “the Chin” Smith, got the scoop:
“Lovely conditions for a race—a big change from the weather in Ireland. Huge crowd of 16,000.
Ran with a group up until 16km, and then the group split. The last few miles were a bit hairy, and I had to dig deep to the finish. Happy with the time and looking forward to the year ahead.”
Sheehan’s guru, Coach Stazza, had this to say on his punchy PB:
“Keep chipping away, my boy … The fitness is coming back, and you’re improving with every contest … Big things to come … Mark my words!”
With an “A” goal of further dropping his half-Mary PR, Burly B has a few outings eyed up in the not too distant future.
