FPSG AGE GROUPS . . . DECLAN'S HAT-TRICK
Dundee Hawkhill Harriers athlete Declan Gall is entitled to take training a wee bit easier this week - after claiming no fewer than three track golds at the FPSG U20 Champs in Aberdeen.
It was five races in less than 36 hours for Declan, who is now at Uni in Edinburgh, as he won the 400m title on Saturday and followed that up with golds in the 400m Hurdles and then the 800m.
He's coached by John Lees with hurdles assistance from Francis Smith and the weekend was the silver (gold) lining after a spell out injured and being picked by British Athletics for GB Juniors at Loughborough for the 4 x 400m Relay but then not landing a run.
'I will just have to run quicker next year and make sure I am ranked even higher,' he said.
Bobby Gavin's brilliant photos capture his 1-2-3 final runs for gold . . .
