Sports City Manchester 19th December

A small number of athletes ventured out in the snow to compete at the indoor open meeting in Manchester. Andrew Storey, Jack Thomas, Hannah StoreyΒ and Noah Saunders managed to cover all the age groups; each performing well.

A first taste of indoor competition saw Andrew give a very creditable performance of 64.91s in the 400m and a realisation of how hard the indoor track is.

Jack powered through his 60m race with a new PB of 7.20 seconds; also setting a new Club Record in the process!

Hannah produced a good performance in her 60m event setting a time of 8.38s, just outside her PB of 8.27s.

Noah’s return to the track after a year beset by injuries saw him bring his PB down to 8.54s from his previous 8.75s.

Well done to all and great to see Horwich represented at these fixtures as always.

More indoor events are scheduled at Sports City before the end of February 2011 so check out the fixture list for when to attend.
