Track + Field Race Report

Run reports
A balmy Tuesday evening in Middlesbrough saw round 4 of the summer track and field series. Some of the usual suspects were there - namely Katie Abel, Emily Chaytor, Vicky Meaby, Kate Butterworth and myself.

We started with the age old lack of safety pins problem - but didn't let it spoil the mood. First field event was the Hammer throw. Kate and Vicky entered - with Kate's superb 17.23 metre throw winning the woman's senior category. A really fantastic effort considering she had little or no experience of the event before. Next up was the 400 metres with Katie, Michelle, Andrew, Tom and myself…
