Lia Radus runs into her best form in South of England Championships



Lia Radus, 15, achieved her best result of the season with an excellent second place in the South of England U17 1500m Championships. Her time of 4:38.53 was a personal best by almost 4 seconds.
Emma Taylor, 16, contested the shot, hammer and javelin in the Eastern Young Athletes League at Hendon, winning the hammer and setting a fine javelin PB of 33.34m. Maayan Radus, 13, won the U15 1500m in 4:59.25 while David Stone, 15, improved his 1500m time to 4:19.27.
Eden Davis, 18, represented England in the 100m at the Manchester International at Sportcity, placing fourth in 10.60. A poignant highlight of this Home International match was the reunion of the full 2004 Great Britain Olympic sprint relay team. With a resounding victory in a celebrity race in aid of the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund, they showed that they still possessed some of the speed that brought them Olympic gold thirteen years ago.
