2022-2023 Indoor Season UK results

British record, no!? Lake.

[LuckySpikes]

Didn't think to check for that. Yes, it is!

[Occasional Hope]

It is indeed.

[RunUnlimited]

After the very understandable tears of frustration shed during her post-event interview at the European Championships where she finished well out of contention, it looks like Morgan Lake has been making the changes to her life and training needed to start jumping at the quality her ability undoubtedly always showed.

So, I make that the *4th* outright British indoor record in various events that's been set in the last couple of weeks. DAS 60m, Atkin 3000m, The Hodge 600m and now Lake's high jump national record. Impressive going!

[RunUnlimited]

Lavial Nielsen won the 400m at the IFAM Meeting in Gent, crossing the line in 52.44, a new season's best. It's also her 2nd quickest 400m indoors, with her PB stretching back to 2017. Could be a battle to see who makes the team for the women 4x400m at the European Indoors in March (depending on which athletes have got that championships in their schedules, of course).

[RunUnlimited]

Jona Efoloko runs 6.63 PB for 60m at Lee Valley, according to Ian Hodge's Twitter.

Another result mentioned there was Cassie Ann Pemberton, who represent GB at the 2018 European U18s in 2018, but has been beset by injuries since 2019 and missed the entire 2022 season, made a successful return to action with a 7.37 clocking in winning at Loughborough, improving upon here 2021 7.44 personal best. Diani Walker ran 7.38 to win the Southern title.

World U20 200m finalist Sophie Walton, still just 18, goes to 8th on the world U20 lists for 2023 after winning the 200m in Glasgow in 23.56. She defeated Hannah Brier (23.67, 0.03 outside indoor PB) and in so doing, set her 2nd indoor 200m PB of the season.

[Christy93]

51.89 iPB for Vicki Ohuruogu... But she lost by half the track as Rhasidat Adeleke sped to a 50.45 clocking. What a talent the Irishwoman is, and what a 4x4 GBR look to have this year.

[RunUnlimited]

That moves Adeleke up to =16th on the European all time list, while V. Ohuruogu moves into 13th on the UK all time list indoors. As you say, the GB 4x400m squad is looking very promising this year. Nicole Yeargin in record-breaking form, Amber Anning back to her best, Laviai Nielson in good shape, as is Ama Pipi and Jessie Knight. And we haven't even seen Jodie Williams this winter yet.

[Christy93]

Jodie ran a 37.2 300 a few weeks ago - Not too dissimilat to Yeargin's (36.89) before her 400. Clearly in decent shape.

[RunUnlimited]

Reece Prescod wins the 60m final at IFAM in 6.59, a season's best and now up to =11th in the world for 2023.

[Occasional Hope]

7.58 pb for Tade Ojora.

[RunUnlimited]

Not only a massive PB (a full tenth of a second improvement), but it's also taking the scalp of Rio Olympic champion Omar McLeod too which make this race so impressive from Ojora.

[Christy93]

iPB and Euro Q for AHW with a 46.29 400m - Much more like it.

[MysteryBrick]

Yeah, I expect him to be up there at Euros, unless Warholm comes (in which case it's a race for 2nd).

[Ursus]

1.99 for Morgan Lake on her 3rd attempt at the Hustopečské skákání HJ meeting in Czechia !! Going for 2.01 next?

Didn’t see that coming. Well done her!

Now to build on and repeat.

[Occasional Hope]

Neil Gourley wins the men's mile at the NB meet with a pb 3.52.84.

[LuckySpikes]

Very good run for Melissa C-B in the 3000 behind Our Laura. I don't know if Laura was just coasting the last 400 or whether she was struggling to raise her pace?

Katie Snowden & Hannah Nuttall both with PBs in 3rd & 4th, just sneaking inside the Euros 8:48 standard.

she looked knackered for last two laps

[Ladyloz]

I didn't have Morgan Lake breaking the British Record on my bingo card for this weekend.

Fingers crossed she really builds on this. Consistency is key; I have always felt in the past she is as likely to jump 1.85 as 1.95. More consistency and that magical 2m+ jump will hopefully follow on.

[paul]

I see that Boffey did not manage to improve her PB in Boston (2:01.42 in third). But it is always great experience to be in a race with Ajee Wilson and a strong field.

Ellie was fourth, but Lynsey was last to finish. It is going to be very interesting to see how things progress for all of them from here.

[RunUnlimited]

The RIG Games (Reykjavik International Games) is a Challenger level World Indoor Tour meeting, and there will be a sprinkling of British athletes performing. No real headliners (apart from American Chase Ealey in the mixed shot put) in the various line ups, but it'll be good to see the likes of Lewis Byng, Serena Vincent (shot), Leonie Ashmeade (60m), all U23s, in action.

When I think of Sharp I cannot get out of my head the old saying,old soldiers dont die they just fade away.I think it pretty unlikely she will return to previous standards. However, one never knows

[MysteryBrick]

I think that is reasonably likely. Remember, she went to London 2012 so she's been around a while! She was unlucky that her peak coincided with Semenya etc. and now the top end of the 800m has two 20-year-olds ruling the roost

[drobbie]

shes never been particularly good indoors, hopefully she can improve by the summer
