Bexley Athletic Club

Bexley AC’s Imeta Barauskiene triumphed at the British Masters Indoor Championships on the weekend of 18th/19th February coming home with 3 golds, in the W45 Category,   in the High Jump jumping 1.48m; the Long Jump (4.53m); and the Triple Jump (9.96m).

The above added to her Gold at the British Masters Indoor Pentathlon Championship in Sheffield two weeks previously where she scored  a points total of  3282.

Imeta has been one of our most successful Masters athletes in recent years with a PB in 2008 of 11.34 in the Triple Jump which is a  Club Record ; a Long Jump of 5.44 in 2005 and a High Jump of 1.58m in 2007 – both Masters Club Records.

The British Masters Athletic Federation Track and Field Championships and winter throws meeting saw Bexley athletes come away with five gold medals.

Imeta Barauskiene led the way with three gold medals. She won the W45 High Jump with 1m 53cm; the Long Jump with 4m 86cm and the Triple Jump with 10m 20cm.

Graham Holder is the M35 Hammer Champion with we believe a new age group British record throw of 54m 56cm.
