Good performances at Merseyside Schools

It was good to look through the results of yesterday's Merseyside Schools Track and Field Championships at Bebington and see several of the Aland-bound athletes in good form. I was especially pleased to see excellent results from two athletes who haven't had the easiest of starts to the season but who are now obviously coming into top form just when it really matters.

Tom Richmond produced his fastest 800m of the season to take the Senior Boys title in the tightest of finishes in a time of 1.57.7, and Ciara McDonnell set a new pb of 42.4 for the 300m and a time of 26.8 in the 200m which is not too far away from her best. These results should do wonders for their confidence. Full results are at

I haven't had much time to update the blog recently with the TT and all that, and for some strange reason the blog was 'locked' for a couple of days as it was identified by the host site as potential spam!!! Presumably there are thousands of others out there all writing Aland 2009 blogs. Features on Darren Gray, Ben Brand, Sarah Dowling, Harriet Pryke and Hollie Bass will appear over the next week.

I hope the weather in Aland improves soon as it is awful at the moment - cold, wet and windy!
