Local athlete Craig Murch was proud to represent Rugby & Northampton AC and Loughborough University at the British Athletic Championships in Birmingham at the weekend.

Throwing in the Men’s Hammer, where several athletes were seeking the Olympic qualification distance, Craig demonstrated great composure and competitive spirit in the high pressure arena with a consistent series of throws.
