Jordan Boam recorded a near four second personal best over 1500 metres recording 4.13.75 and is an indication he will be going to the European Police Championships in Prague at the end of this month in great shape.

After an operation less than two months previously Paige Roadley has come back strongly recording 2.25.71 for 800 and will also be looking to be in great shape by the time she races the same event in Prague.
