In only his fourth wheelchair marathon Team NI athlete Mark Millar set a personal best time of 1:58:48 en route to a sixth place finish at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
“I think I have to be delighted with that," said Millar who was making his games debut at the age of 42. "I’m only in a wheelchair four years after a big accident so to get to this level and be competitive I’m delighted."
The County Down native competed in cycling before a life changing accident in the summer of 2018 confined him to a wheelchair, although he was determined to continue in sport.
