Did you see the 3,000m race in the Aviva World Trials and UK Championships? What a cracker, with three different leaders on the last 200m lap. Happily, the one in front at the finish was Jonny Mellor, with a very powerful last 100m. His time of 7:58.36 was his best ever indoors and just outside his outdoors PB, but is not fast enough to take him to the World Championships: the UK qualification is 7:50.00. Clearly Jonny can go faster, and he's got until 20th February to get the time, but it's going to be tough!
Also at Sheffield there was another good run from Ashley Helsby in the 60m Hurdles, with a 4th place just outside her PB. She is showing a lot of potential for a good summer. |
