Irish Hammer Record Shattered Eileen O'Keeffe was in inspiired form this afternoon at the opening day of the Woodie's DIY cahmpionships at Mortonn Stadium. Her opening throw of 70.68 smashed her own Irish record. But there was more to come. Second time into the circle she again improved that record with a throw of 72.63. Many athletes would be happy with that, but more was to come. Round three she launched the hammer even further to 72.57, and then had a massive throw of 73.21 in round four. Round five was a 'modest' 68.50 before ending the competition with another massive73.05. What a way to open the 2007 championships. Brilliant throwing from Eileen. Well done Eileen.
