England Athletics u/17 and u/15 T&F 2018 (26th Aug)

Coach Michael Lane with race walk Champions Jennifer Fidgeon (5k u/17) and Matthew Glennon (3k u/15)

“AAAs” Gold for Jennifer Fidgeon and Matthew Glennon

Formerly known as and still often referred to as the AAAs, day 2 of the England Athletics u/17 and u/15 T&F Championships took place on Sunday 26th August in a very cold, wet and miserable Bedford but the conditions didn’t stop stand-out performances by Jennifer Fidgeon and Matthew Glennon who simply dominated their respective race walk events. Such was her dominance from the start, Jennifer could afford to relax midway through the race and still won the girls 5,000m u/17 walk three minutes clear of second place and Matthew Glennon was equally impressive in the boys 3,000m u/15 walk to win in 15:31.19. Congratulations to them both on these terrific performances.
