Phil Healy

Phil Healy (born 19 November 1994) is an Irish athlete competing in sprinting events. Her sister Joan Healy is also a sprinter.

She set an Irish 200m national record in July 2018. In the 2018 European Championships, she placed fourth with a time of 23.23.

A video of Phil Healy winning the final leg of the 4 x 400 metre Irish University Championships in 2016 went viral around the world. Her winning run is often cited as one of the greatest athletics comebacks of all time. As she turns into the homestretch, having closed much of an 80-metre gap with the lead runners, the TV commentator is heard to shout "UCC from the depths of hell are powering through".
