Paul Hession produced a season's best performance in the second round of the 200m at the European Championships in Gothenburg yesterday in qualifying for the semi-finals. Paul placed third in his heat and his time in the heat ranks him 11th out of the remaining 16 competitors going into the semi-finals, although only a slight improvement could see him qualify for a place in the finals.
As always, we wish Paul all the very best in his remaining races.
Paul failed to make the final
Despite having what seemed to be a terrible start, Paul gave a good account of himself but it wasn't enough this time.
On a more positive note, his performances and times at these championships have proven that he is able to match it at this level, and there is plenty more to come.
Well Done Paul.
