A Championship Double

Three races in two days, three well-executed performances, and one gold medal. Tommy’s National title adds to his English Schools crown and underlines his ability to deliver when it matters most.

From a 35.76 personal best at English Schools, a mark that made him UK No.1 and 16th all-time, to navigating three tough rounds at Nationals, Tommy has established himself as a standout young talent in British athletics. For SpeedPro, his back-to-back titles represent the result of hard work and the beginning of an exciting journey ahead.
