The target for Irish medals at the European Para Athletics Championships in Berlin this week was six but two days in five have already been secured, four of them gold and with the promise of more to come.
Noelle Lenihan, pictured above with coach Dave Sweeney, raised the tricolour yesterday, breaking her own World Discus record twice into the bargain.
The Paralympics Ireland team is on the ground and sharing content as they were in Dublin last week. Here is Lenihan captured just after her win.
