Cardiff Met Uni Christmas Classic, Cardiff, December 17

Olympic 1500m silver medallist and multiple European champion Laura Muir gained 3000m qualification for the World Indoor Championships in Glasgow in March with a top quality 8:34.39.

Only Muir herself and Jo Pavey have run quicker among British athletes indoors and the time is marginally quicker than Liz McColgan ran in 1989 when she took the world indoor silver in Budapest a time faster than the then world record.

Georgia Bell set a PB 8:49.63 in second while newly crowned European under-20 cross-country champion Innes FitzGerald ran 9:06.26 for an indoor PB which places her third all-time in the UK under-20 indoor lists.

Kirstie Booth, who was in AWs master athlete of the year nominations, set a British W45 record of 9:51.45 in another race that also saw Amelia Williams set a Welsh under-17 record of 9:59.00.
