4x400M

Last match of the National Young Athletes Northern Prem Division. No 1 son runs for Preston Harriers and the team is poised to make the national finals. A win today puts them second in the division overall behind the mighty Sale Harriers, who we almost beat in our last match. Victory today was never in much doubt but against 3 clubs battling against relegation it was a bit of dog fight between them. Cal ran the 1500mtrs and third leg of the 4x400 relay. He is not quite sub 60secs for 400m so had to hang onto the lead built up by the previous runners. He just managed it. Sadly, the last runner was just out dipped on the line. Anyway, national finals in September in Birmingham here we come.
