Lia Radus, 16, improved her 800m best to 2:13.71 at the BMC
Gold Standard event at Trafford. This performance means that Shaftesbury Barnet
Harrier Radus has improved her best by five seconds in the course of one month,
and now stands 24th in the UK U17 rankings.
“I started off a bit too slowly, so I feel there is still room
for improvement. Nevertheless I am delighted with my time", Radus
commented. "I will be running the 1500m, my main event, in the English
Schools Championships later this month, and my progression over 800m should mean
that I can perform well there".
Adam Firsht, 15, was narrowly beaten into second place in
the 800m final at the Independent Schools Association National Championships at
Birmingham. Firsht, representing Shoreham College, finished just outside his
personal best in 2:03.61.
Highgate long jump specialist Idan Gal-Shohet, 17, set an
outdoor season's best of 6.60m in the Southern Athletics League at Parliament
Hill.
