Yaes Wins CE Bronze

Scottish Indoor Combined Events Champs - 22/02/09 Kelvin Hall
Kirsty Yates (Stewartry AC) finished 3rd in the Under 17 Girls Pentathlon with a new PB score.

The day started well with a 2nd place in the 60m Hurdles in 9.24, 0.06 off her PB. She then jumped 1.48m in the High Jump, a new season's best and 5cm off her PB. She was 6th overall in this event. Then it came to Kirsty's specialist event, the Shot. Here she demolished the rest of the field with a her 2nd furthest throw ever with 12.23m. The closest to this was 8.96m! Next up was the Long Jump. Kirsty was 4th but might have been disappointed with her 4.63m. This left the 800m, Kirsty's weakest event. Here, Kirsty was delighted to get well under 3 minutes in 2:49.88, a new SB and reasonably close to her PB. Kirsty was rewarded for her consistency with a bronze medal and new PB of 3061. She was 2nd Scot.
