With Storm Freya bearing down, the course designers tried hard to please the weather gods, with offerings of lactic acid and muscle cramps courtesy of a deceptive ascent from the start to ‘A’, an in-your-face climb from 'B' to 'H', a stone path that had the 'long spikes vs. short spikes vs. trail shoes' debate going all morning, and an array of rabbit holes on the run-in that would not have looked out of place in Watership Down.
Elly Hind represented Radley at the England Athletics Indoor Combined Events Championships in Sheffield on 10 March. This was a high quality competition with the best 50 combined event athletes in England. She started the day with a near PB of 9.40s in the 60m hurdles and went on to 5.10m in the long jump. Shot came next, and a PB of 8.07. High jump followed and after three attempts at 1.68m and 12 jumps in total, she finished with 7cm PB of 1.65m. That puts her second in the current UK rankings.
