Clohisey is the third runner home, claiming 103rd overall.
Well done, Team Ireland, ir’s been emotional.
Not too far behind Pollock is Seaward, who put up a time of 2:20.06.
That’s a serious second half from Dr Pollock after sitting 96th at the halfway point.
He was fortunate to get the call, but he’s repaying the faith of Athletics Ireland in the second half of this race.
He’s now up to 34th with 2k to go.
Terrific stuff from the Kenyan.
Paul Pollock is one of the first 50 men past the 35km mark.
20k down and Paul Pollock – perhaps justifying his selection to some degree – leads the Irish trio in 98th place. Mick Clohisey in 108th with Kevin Seaward in 116th.
They’ve past the 10km mark in the Marathon and Ghirmay Ghebreslassie is the familiarly-named leader.
Mick Clohisey is best of the Irish at the minute in 105th place.
Paul Pollock and Kevin Seaward just a little further back in 124th and 130th.
Just over 20 minutes to go until the starter’s gun in Rio.
Mick Clohissey, Kevin Seaward and Paul Pollock are ready to run. Are you ready to follow all 26 miles, 365 yards no matter how many cups of tea and coffee it takes?
There’ll be fireworks tonight as Rio draws a final curtain on the 31st modern Olympic Games.
It’s been a hell of a journey over the last 16 days, we hope you enjoyed enduring it this far, we just need one last push from you, Team Ireland, to see us happily through into the next four-year cycle.
The men’s Marathon is the main event at 13.30 today, but take the big spoon and get yourself a helping of our Olympic Breakfast for more highlights to be on the lookout for before the Olympics disappear again.
