A team of seven athletes from the City of York Athletics Club’s disability training group travelled to the Sheffield Festival of Athletics at the Don Valley Stadium.

In all, seven clubs took part in a wide range of athletic events from the 50 metres walk to soft javelin to the 400m wheelchair race.

The York team performed brilliantly with Jessica McPherson creating a club record for the 50m sprint, while Graeme Harley broke the 100m club record and created a new 200m record.
