At the Sainsbury's British Championships in Birmingham Hannah Thomas (Wrexham/ Swansea) just failed to make the 100m final, finishing fifth in the semi in 12.02.
In the 200m, however, she made it to the final, drawing the inside lane, and finished an excellent fourth in a pb of 23.87.
Hawarden's Sally Peake (Birchfield), the Welsh record-holder, won the pole vault with her first clearance of 4.23m.
Gareth Warburton (Cardiff) failed to recapture his form of last year, when he qualified for the Olympics. In the 800m final he finished third in 48.87.
