Braintree and District Athletic Club athletes were able to gauge their training progress at the South of England AA Indoor Championships.

They competed against some of the most talented under-15, under-17, under-20 and Senior athletes from this part of the UK.

Many of the Braintree athletes gained new indoor personal bests (PBs), final places and in one case, a silver medal.
