Mara Myers of Parkside (Harrow) Athletic Club, continued to demonstrate the excellent form she's shown all year by finishing fourth in the 10,000 metres at the AAA Championships at Bedford on Sunday.

Mara, who took the National cross-country title back in March, clocked an excellent time of 34min 52sec.

The race was also the selection event for the Commonwealth and European Championships later this summer, but unfortunately, all the 10,000 metres athletes finished outside the Commonwealth qualifying time of 34min 30sec.
