Too tight to mention!

Another riveting weekend as Charlie Grice, coached by our own Jon Bigg, took to the track at the British Indoor Championships at Sheffield. As the athletes set off they understood that winning meant qualification for the World Championships in Poland in March.

The top three British Athletes, Charlie Grice, Chris O'Hare and Lee Emanuel, showed how closely matched they were coming within one hundredth of a second apart in Glasgow last month and Sheffield proved no different......
With all three taking the lead throughout the race, Charlie was again locked in a battle at the last 600metres and was again pipped at the post within one hundredths of a second between 1st, 2nd and 3rd. It's too tight to mention!

Lee Emanuel: 3:84:15
Chris O'Hare: 3:48:68
Charlie Grice: 3:48:69

Hats off to also to Robbie Fitzgibbon, placed eighth in his heat of the 1,500m in 3:56.50.
