Radus sisters in impressive form

Lia Radus, 14, reinforced her status as one of the country’s brightest young middle-distance stars with two impressive victories in the space of four days. Blackheath & Bromley athlete Radus first won the British Milers Club women's 800m event in Eltham in a new PB of 2:18.96. She followed this up by winning the South of England U15 Championship, recording 4:47.40 for a 3s winning margin. Meanwhile her younger sister Maayan, 12, returned to competition at the Bushey Park parkrun, clocking  20:27 for a 33s improvement on her previous best.
 “I am very happy with my 800m PB as I had been trying to break 2:20 for some time,” Radus commented. “The South of England 1500m was a very tactical race, run in windy conditions. It was obvious from early on that there was no chance of a PB so I concentrated on the tactical aspect and winning the race”.
 Eden Davis, 17, gained victories in the 100m and 200m and third place in the 400m in the Southern Athletics League at Bromley. His times in windy conditions were 11.33, 22.22 and 52.94.
