‘All of the medallists from Ireland are vision-impaired women. Hopefully we’re inspiring the next generation.’
Emma Duffy Reports from Clichy-sous-Bois SEVENTH HEAVEN FOR Katie-George Dunlevy, but this time, with a different partner in crime.
Instead it was Games debutant Linda Kelly who piloted Dunlevy to glory on this occasion, while McCrystal teamed up with Josephine Healion to finish fifth in the same gruelling 28.3km time trial at Clichy-sous-Bois. A few months later, they were moving mountains and winning medals. Dunlevy’s long-serving pilot McCrystal made the decision to step away from the road last year, while Dunlevy and Kelly became world champions.
“It’s all paid off,” Dunlevy smiles. “You have the medals for the rest of your life and nobody can take that from you.”Kelly and Dunlevy celebrate winning gold. Tom Maher / INPHO Tom Maher / INPHO / INPHO
