Well what a great two days for Milana Thorpe in the Southern Counties Multi Events Championships held at Oxford - seven pb`s. 200m in 26.91s, 800m 2m 27.79s, shot putt 11.48m, high jump 1.52m, long jump 5.11m and javelin 29.49m. In the hurdles just outside her best with 12.40s. These brought about a final points score of 4514 - way above her previous best. In the top two in all events - winning four and still not champion as her Winchester opponent put in a huge javelin effort to turn the tables.
It had looked to be another star performance from Kristian Brown with pb`s in the 100m (11.18S) and discus (40.69m) plus a win in the hurdles (15.12s) and second over 400m (51.32s). Alas in the high jump (1.65m) an injury forced retirement.
