VETERAN St Peter’s AC thrower Tom McGrane (pictured right) achieved his best shot putt throw since 2014 when finishing a creditable fourth in Saturday’s annual Le Cheile International track and field meeting in Leixlip.

He has had mixed fortunes so far this year, but certainlyly enjoyed a returnn to form at the weekend when he threw 9.74m, a season’s best and his longest throww in two years.

This earned him a fourth-place finish,nish, which was just outside the medalsmedals, but rediscovering coverinrediscovering his form made the journey wortworthwhile and St Peter’s AC are fortunate to have such a role model for their up and comcoming throwers.
