Sonia O'Sullivan: Great Irish Sports Stars

Natasha Mac a'Bhaird

OLYMPIAN, WORLD CHAMPION RUNNER AND IRISH SPORTING LEGEND

‘Sonia walked to the start line with the other athletes, her tummy full of butterflies. She could feel the eyes of the crowd upon them. Sixty-five thousand people, all here to watch their race. She had dreamt about this moment for so long, and now it was here.’

As a little girl, playing with her friends in Cobh, Co. Cork, Sonia O'Sullivan was known as the fastest runner. When she joined a running club and started to win races, she began to dream of the Olympic Games. Through her talent, dedication and her ability to get back up and dust herself down when things went wrong. Sonia went from an ordinary girl who loved to run to an extraordinary world class athlete.

The story of one of Ireland’s greatest ever athletes – and a dream made real.
