Another meet, another record!
8 February 2022
Darcey Roberts absolutely obliterated her U15 1500m walk record last Saturday. Previously, Lauren Boden held this record at 9:09.01. Darcey lowered this to 7:54.00 in one of our first meets with what she described as a training walk.
Well, she was right, because last Saturday she had a crack at it and brought it down by almost a minute to clock in at 6:58.43. Darcey is in the top echelon of walkers in the U20 category in this country and has inspired many of our members to walk just like her. It’s mesmerising to watch her walk!
Last night Darcey helped us out with a walks clinic and is undoubtedly a bright talent and we look forward to what else she achieves in the sport of athletics.
