Kellie Harrington has signalled her intention to represent Ireland again, although her return to the international stage will be carefully managed following her comeback earlier this year. Harrington admitted afterwards that she remained uncertain about her long-term future in the sport. However, within the high performance unit it is now expected that she will grace the international stage again. “We approach all athletes with an individual mindset and Kellie is no different,” said interim high-performance head coach Damian Kennedy. It will be a gradual approach from here, and that will dictate how long the journey continues.”Ireland’s Kellie Harrington celebrates on the podium with her gold medal.
