Irish athletics has lost another giant with the death of Jerry Kiernan, who leaves behind a legacy as one of Ireland’s foremost distance runners and coaches. The 67-year-old was a native of Listowel, Co Kerry, and he lived in Dublin for most of his adult life. He had many achievements in the course of his career. He finished in ninth place in the marathon at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles, where his Irish teammate John Treacy won the silver medal. Mr Kiernan won the Dublin Marathon in 1982 and 1992 and in 1976 he became the seventh Irishman to break the four-minute mile when he ran 3:59.2 in London.
