Blog 2

We meet again! Time does certainly fly. So I've had good progress after overcoming my quad injury, being able to carry out full training, race over the hurdles and running a personal best or close to it.

I managed to get a few race
s in and around Europe. I also competed in Chania, Greece where I ran 56.75 for the 400m hurdles and then I was in Geneva where I ran a 57.01. Not bad for openers.

The weekend just gone I was in Watford, competing in the South of England championships. I switched to the 400m and I had a good heat which gave me good confidence. Then it was all smiles for me on the Sunday where I had a victory run and pulled out a personal best. Thanks to the good weather!

During my busy schedule I fit in time to teach Channel 4 presenter Rick Edwards how to hurdle. I must say he was pretty impressive for a first timer and he was even confident enough to race me. You can see the outcome when it airs on C4 on the new McCain Track & Field Show, starting on the 26th July, 8:30am.

This weekend Bedford will be holding the u23 European trials which will be held in Kaunas, Lithuania in mid July. I'll be doing my specialist event. So wish me luck!
