Another medal for Wexford’s Linda Kelly at the Paris Paralympics

There’s another medal coming home…

Just two days after securing a gold medal at the Paralympics in Paris, Wexford woman Linda Kelly who hails from New Ross has secured a silver medal in another event.

It was the same pair again that secured a silver medal this time around. Katie-George Dunlevy and Linda Kelly won Ireland’s sixth medal of the Paralympic Games.

Kelly, who acted as the pilot for Katie-George Dunlevy, secured a second-place, podium finish,  in the road race at today’s Paralympics.

They came second place to Great Britain. GB’s Unwin and Holl finished in 2:37.26, while Dunlevy and Kelly came home in 2:37.29
