One of our Senior tarck athletes Claire Burgoyne recently travelled to Sheffield for the NAtional Indoor Championships and European Indoor Trails to compete in the womens 400m. The event attracts the all the top British athletes all hoping to gain selection for the European Indoor Championships to be held soon in Italy.
Claire went in the second heat and finished a close third of five competitors qualifying to run in the next round later in the day. When this race came around she went up against some of the favourites to win the final. When she got to this race she had to come in the first three to go through to the final. Claire held onto fourth all the way through the race so just missed out on making the final. She managed to stay consistant with her times throughout the day running 55 seconds for both races.
