England Athletics Disability Championship Manchester.


Emily competed in this competition on Saturday in very windy conditions. First up was the semi final of the ambulant women’s 100m. A fast start out the blocks saw Emily power along the track to the finish in 14.97s. Emily had qualified for the final later in the day.

Next up was the shot put. An excellent set of 6 throws saw Emily claim a bronze medal with a best throw of 8.67m . Straight after that was the discus. Again ver strong set of throws with the wind right in her face saw Emily again claim a bronze medal with a good throw of 17.87m .

The final of the 100m saw Emily go even better than the semi final. A really great start saw Emily power home in 14.87s. A great days competing held in difficult conditions but at the end of the day you have to adapt to these conditions no matter where you compete.

Next up the CPISRA World Games in Barcelona.
