This was Hannah's fastest time in 5 years with it being just 0.03 seconds off of her lifetime best she set back in 2015 of 23.59. 

In the 400m, in her 4th race since stepping up to the 400m Amy Oduniya [Dave Norton] clocked a huge new lifetime best of 54.16 to finish 4th in the final which puts her top of the Welsh rankings for 2021.
