Athletics Ireland has completed the first round of selections for the 2022 European Athletics Championships which focussed on Marathon and 35km Race Walk events.  To date, six athletes are eligible for selection in these events having attained A standards during the qualifying period. 

Further selections will likely be made to 35km Race Walk and Marathon in July to include athletes qualifying by rank, in the case of 35km Walk, and any additional selections to the Marathon team, as this event includes the European Marathon Team Cup.  

Please note Selection Policy has been amended to allow later selections in both 35km Walk and Marathon.  Updated selection Policy is available here.  Please contact Athletics Ireland Performance Director Paul McNamara if any clarity is required with regard to updated selection policy
