Racing at Nivelles, Belgium, James Ellington set a lifetime best of 10.27 for 100 metres while running to 2nd place in the EAP Meeting. At Uden in The Netherlands Dwain Chambers was a double winner with 10.22 for 100m and 20.50 for 200m (a season's best). Also at Uden William Sharman took the sprint hurdles with 13.63. In Milan David Gillick dominated in the 400m, clocking 45.51 - his 45.16 a couple of weeks back stands as Europe's third best of the season so far. Last weekend decathlete Kyle McCarthy was a little disappointed to score 7,408 points at Kladno, in the Czech Republic - but his 59.76 javelin throw was outstanding. ... and at home The BMC Grand Prix at Stretford saw plenty of Belgrave action where torrential rain late in the programme resulted in the later races being delayed for half an hour; an inch of water had to be cleared from the inside lane. In the 5,000m Mark Miles took to the track for the first time this year to clock 14:02.76 for 2nd while in 6th spot Russell Dessaix-Chin was 14:07.29. Both are looking forward the UK Champs & World Champs Trial at Birmingham over 10,000m in a couple of weeks time. At 1,500m Mark Pollard took another step forward to run 3:49.16 - but the revelation was Shaun Moralee, going to the top of our outdoor rankings for 2009 with what is reported to be 3:41 and bits - confirmed time not available as yet. Shaun was 3rd in the A 1500 behind Jermaine Mays and Kenyan Bernard Kiplagat and his previous best before this year was 3:46-odd from 2007.

More Rosenheim League Wed. 24 June, Tooting. An extreme shortage of judges and timekeepers - and no starter - made this a fraught match for officials. Somehow the competition was completed though and the Bels were back to winning ways - men and women. Times of the sprints are obviously subject to a little suspicion as a training starting device was used instead of a gun; but most times don't seem too far away from those the athletes normally return. Full results Belgrave results The 1500m hots up It's getting hotter at the top of our 2009 1500 metre rankings. Neil Speaight's (3:39.17) and Steve Davies' (3:41.24) indoor exploits head the list at the moment but outdoors it's the US based Gauson brothers holding sway with Kris (3:42.13) and Darren (3:43.21 twice) now being challenged by Shaun Moralee (3:42.70).

Two outstanding performances showed up on the first day of the championships. In the U20 5000 metres Walk Alex Wright took no less than one and a half minutes off the Championship Best time as he clocked 21:54.98. It reduces his own club record by three quarters of a minute and he moves to within 15 seconds of Carl Lawton's senior record which has stood for 33 years. Set Osho still has some work to do in the final of the 400 metres, but having put all the problems of recent years behind him he took his heat in a season's best of 47.46 and then ran 46.76 for a lifetime best in the semi-final. Sun. 21 June. A tremendous run came from Set Osho who threw his pre-race plan out of the window but won by miles in 46.70 - another personal record. The U20 400 metre hurdles went to Matt Threadgold who set his best ever time, and bronze medals went to James Kelly (5000m) and Gary Wilson (Triple J).
Above: National One it might be but the competition seems no less fierce in the middle-distance and sprints. In the A 800m, Jonathan Blackledge (2) was stretched over the first 600m but came through strongly to win from Notts AC's Richard Hill (7) a metre or two before the line - time 1:50.9.
