Gracie walks her way to Bronze at the British Muller Indoor Senior Champs.

Sunday the 19th saw 16 year old Gracie Griffiths take the long trip to the Utilita Stadium in Birmingham to compete in the Muller Senior British Champs.

With this being her first race since August, Gracie was looking to dust off the cobwebs. Gracie led the race well for the first 9 laps, however with that in mind Gracie went off like a 'bull in a china shop' ( a quote from Wayne) in her first 1k  and was rewarded with a bronze medal for efforts.
