A typical 100% effort from Alastair Chalmers as the Guernsey islander progress into the 4H semis. Steve Cram was disappointed with the overall standard and yet we had 25 guys under 49 secs (18 in Paris).
Big achievement for British-based Saint Lucian 400m runner Marvric Pamphile who makes the final of the 400m at the NACAC Championships with a PB of 46.06s (4th-AT 🇱🇨)
Pamphile serves in the British Army and was on deployment in Cyprus as recently as May!

🎽 Guernsey athlete Alastair Chalmers is down to run at the Stockholm Diamond League meeting on Sunday, alongside world record holder Karsten Warholm and Olympic champion Rai Benjamin among others in a stellar 400m hurdles line-up. The race is scheduled for 6.52pm BST
...and by the way, not ideal conditions in Rehlingen. If you look at the sprints so far today.. big winds against down the home straight. That would have been tough! 👏👏
@AthleticsGBR Brilliant performance. Dale said he had this in him if he could stop hitting hurdlers. Ala for the world champs then - wish I could afford to watch in person.
We have the third U.K. leader in a fortnight in the M400m Hurdles as commonwealth bronze medallist Alastair Chalmers defies lane 2 on the 6 lane track in rehlingen to run a super 48.30- fifth fastest Briton ever. Guernsey record!
