Results
The Weekend Weather Forecast Didn’t Look Great for Our Second Throws Grand Prix at Linwood with Heavy Rain and Blustery Wind Expecto.
Fortunately, competitors and officials managed to dodge the showers but not The Testing Wind Which Benefitted The Javelin Throws But Left the Discus Throwers Facing Headwinds.
Over 134 Athletes Entred and a Grand Total of 44 PBS Were Achieved. Highlights Included Sophie Robertson‘S Hammer Throw of 58.68m and Logan Mitchell‘S SHOT AT 15.57M – Both PBS.
As Always Thanks to All The Officials and Volunteers, Without Them There Would Be No Opportunities to Compete.
The Third Throws gp is on Saturday 19 July AT Grangemouth.
With Thanks to Jim Green
