Records again at the British Athletics Indoor Grand Prix

Katarina Johnson-Thompson (Liverpool, coach Mike Holmes) had another stunning weekend as she set a second British Record within a week.  Having set the British high jump record last week with 1.97m (and a PB in the 60m Hurdles), she won the long jump today at the Birmingham Indoor Grand Prix with a jump of 6.93m. 
In amongst other fine performances, Mo Farah set his first world record - the two-mile indoor - with a superb run where he left the field behind to storm home in a time of 8:03.40 seconds - breaking Kenenisa Bekele's previous record of 8:04.34
