Grice Takes Southern Indoor 800m Title

Friday 25th January 2013

It’s been a little bit if time since Charlie has taken a big title after missing the outdoor U20 national championship last year. But in his first year as a senior (first year U23) he managed to hold off the fast finishing Matt McLaughlin in the final to come away with a satisfying win, with Dan Stepney narrowly missing out on the Bronze by 1/100 of a second. What was also so pleasing to see is Charlie and Dan within the heat ran times than place them 1 and 2 on the UK rankings.
Congratulations also have to go to Sam Kitchen with a big PB of 2.00.23 running in the U17 age group.
