This was the 29^th meeting of the Championships with over 600 entrants over the 2 days.

 

Being part of my World Indoor build up I ran the 1500 on Saturday winning Gold in a time 5 seconds quicker than last year and faster than I’ve run for several years indoors or out so was delighted with 5 mins 13.24. However I did pay for it in the 3000 on Sunday as my legs really felt like they had run a marathon!

 

Having taken 3 seconds of my British Record last weekend in the Southern Counties Championships I knew it would be tough. I started off well on target but with very tired legs could not find anything extra, although I did manage to better my time it was only by a whisker. Still every little helps as they say! My British W55 Indoor Record now stands at 11 mins 01.3.

 

At least it shows consistency but as every runner knows you always want more and how I would love to break 11 mins!
