Action from Day 2 of the British Indoor Team Trials 2017

There were more good performances at the EIS, Sheffield on Day 2 of the British Indoor Team Trials - with selection for the European Championships in Belgrade on many minds.
Scott Lincoln took gold in the first final - winning the Men’s shot put with 18.76m

The Women’s 3000m race walk saw Gemma Bridge add to her win at the EIS in the first weekend of January with her first British title in a personal best of 13.23.59

Tom Bosworth won the 5,000m walk in a new British record of 18:39.47 minutes, cheered on by the crowd as he stormed around the last few laps.


Sheffield Pole Vaulter Luke Cutts posted a season's best 5.43m for his fifth British indoor pole vault title to beat Max Eaves on countback.



In the men's High Jump, Robbie Grabarz cleared 2.25m for silver behind Allan Smith.

Guy Learmonth ran with the red bib to indicate that he was the fastest man on paper, and justified it - winning the Men’s 800m in 1.48.19

Elliot Giles left it late to over-take Tom Lancashire to win the Men's 1500m title with a personal best of 3:45.59

Lorraine Ugen produced the fourth longest jump in the world this year of 6.72m to win the Women's Long Jump ahead of Katarina Johnson-Thompson and Jazmin Sawyers.



Sheffield's Lee Emmanuel won his third 3,000m title in succession - pulling away with 600m to go.
