After a long, dark and cold winter, the indoor athletic season ended with the National Indoor Championships at the Emirates Arena in Glasgow. A good starter for heading towards the outdoor season, our athletes took it all in their stride, even with the disadvantage of training facilities in the winter months. An impressive show from the athletes, who have embraced their training and continue to shine.

Well done to all our athletes!
