UPDATE!

Well, things are going great so far in the 2009 athletics season.

Having competed in two West Yorkshire League Meetings , i am now fortunate enough to be top of the Senior Mens League!

My times are getting stronger each time i race..

WYL meeting 1. 200m - 24.2
WYL meeting 2. 200m - 23.5
Yorkshire Championships- 23.1 !!!

Yes, thats a new PB for me! In fact i managed to break my previous PB of 23.4s twice on the same day! In the heats i manged 4th place, doubtful of a place in the final, but i managed a PB of 23.3 and scraped through with the 7th best time.

Not particularly looking forward to the final as i was begining to feel the effcts of playing rugby the day before, and i drew the dredded outside lane!!

Although i ended up 7th, i ran the fastest time of my career in 23.1, on the outside lane, into a headwind!

I am so close to breaking the 23 second barrier, it is only early in the season, so theres plenty of time yet! The lofty heights of being a 22 second runner beckons!
