Mixed fortunes for 800m runners There were mixed fortunes for the two Irish runners in the 800m at the World University Games today. David McCarthy finished third in his heat to guarantee him a place in the semi finals, but Thomas Chamney was out of luck when he finished fourth in his heat, but unfortunately his time was not good enough to get him through as one of the next three fastest times. 800m 1 MAR - AITDOUIDA Rida 1:48.92 Q PB 2 MEX - SOLARES LEGORRETA Pablo 22/12/1984 1:48.97 Q 3 IRL - MC CARTHY David 16/07/1983 1:49.59 Q 4 GRE - PAPADOPOULOS Efthymios 1:49.89 800m 1 LAT - JURKEVICS Dmitrijs 07/01/1987 1:48.61 Q 2 ESP - CORTES Jose Manuel 10/06/1983 1:48.97 Q 3 LTU - KOZLOV Vitalij 05/03/1987 1:48.98 Q 4 IRL - CHAMNEY Thomas 16/04/1984 1:49.05 5 FRA - BARRE Julien 1:49.31 6 SUI - ALBERT Ueli 10/11/1980 1:49.68
