For Moycullen's Fiona Murtagh and Furbo's Aifric Keogh it was the culmination of months, if not years of hard work, sacrifice and determination and together with Cabra's Eimear Lambe and Skibbereen’s Emily Hegarty they overcame a bad start to produce a stunning finish in difficult conditions on the Sea Forest Waterway in Tokyo Bay.

Not only was there the success of the Olympic Games, there was also European Championship success earlier in the year and the last twelve months have been a year of tests, success and challenges for all four incredible rowers.
