The Hillier Training group in Spain - I am flying!! |
After a long winter and great warm weather training in Spain for three weeks, the new season begins this weekend (17th & 18th May) with a bang! On Saturday I am off to Manchester to compete in the Great City Games. I will be running the 200m hurdles. Manchester is a great city and it will be fantastic to compete on the streets in front of so many people! It will be my first time running a 200m Hurdles race. The hurdles are shorter than what I am hurdling at this moment, so it is going to be strange running a different stride pattern. This event is been televised on BBC1 starting at 1pm. My race will be on at 2.15!
After my race I'll be heading South to Loughborough where I will be competing for England at the Loughborough International on Sunday. I have been selected to run the 400m hurdles and 4 x 400m relay. I am really looking forward to competing for England. I hope the weather is good after last weekend!
