As many of you will know, Freddy Sittuk was initially awarded the National Marathon title on Sunday at the Dublin Marathon. On Wednesday, the decision was overturned.
The whole controversy was aired today on the RTE Liveline radio programme.

it's the right decision but should have been all sorted beforehand. Fred and Gary came across as really good guys. They have both have had their fair share of troubles in life and Freddy's story really puts our lives in perspective. Hope they all do well in the future.
