🏃‍♂️WORLD CHAMPION & NEW WORLD RECORD HOLDER! 🏆🌍

Huge congratulations to Ireland’s Liam Foley (Trim AC), who successfully defended his 800m World Championship title yesterday at the Down Syndrome World Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Liam produced a phenomenal performance, winning the T21 World Championship in a new World Record time of 2:42.00.

The event was contested across two heats, making pacing especially challenging when the strongest athletes are not all racing together. Liam rose to the challenge brilliantly, recording the fastest time overall and claiming another global title.

Having first become World Champion in Antalya, Turkey, in 2024, Liam continues to set the standard on the world stage and has now added a World Record to his growing list of achievements.

Congratulations, Liam, your coaches, family, teammates at Trim AC, and all of Team Ireland! 🇮🇪💚
