WATCH: Jessica Barr in tears as she reflects on her brother’s fourth place finish

Watching your brother run the race of his life in an Olympic final is special.

Doing so with the insight that goes with being a top-class athlete yourself makes it even more special. And it was all this emotion coursing through her veins that Jessie Barr was asked to make sense of her younger sibling Thomas's historic run in the final of the 400-metre hurdles. Unsurprisingly the 27-year-old, sat in the RTÉ studio alongside Jerry Kiernan, Sonia O'Sullivan and Derval O'Rourke, found it hard to fight the tears. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/766300926835564544 The 2012 Olympian was amazed that her brother managed to break the 48 second barrier to record a time of 47.97 as he set his second Irish record in three days.
