Barr tops heat to reach semi-finals

Thomas Barr has won his heat in this morning's men's 400m hurdles at the European Track and Field Championships in Zurich.

The Waterford man, and current Irish senior record holder (48.90), ran a time of 49.79 to qualify for tomorrow's semi-final eighth fastest overall.

Meanwhile, Athlone's Jason Harvey finished a disappointing seventh in his heat.

Lisburn's Amy Foster just missed out on automatic qualification from her 100m heat after finishing in fifth place with a time of 11.51.

However, Foster qualified for the semis as one of four fastest losers but Cork's Phil Healy was eliminated after the Bandon sprinter finished sixth in her 100m heat.

Brian Gregan progressed into the 400m semi-finals after coming home third in his heat, the Dubliner clocking a time of 49.33.

Richard Morrissey put in an impressive run to finish sixth in his 400m heat with a personal best 46.20 to qualify as a fastest loser.

Limerick's Sarah Lavin failed to advance from the 100m hurdles after finishing last in her heat.

Other Irish in action today:

800m R1: Mark English and Declan Murray, 18:52pm

10,000 Final: Fionnuala Britton, 1920pm
