Scot sets UK 300m mark plus news of another Innes FitzGerald victory, a Dina Asher-Smith win plus GB golds in European masters road races
Iowa City IA, USA, January 20-21
Nicole Yeargin set a UK 300m indoor best of 36.89 in winning her 300m race though it’s worth noting that Nicola Sanders was timed at 36.0 during her 50.02 still-standing British Iindoor 400m record run when winning the 2007 European Indoors gold.
Olympic 400m finalist Jodie Williams was only 0.35 slower than Yeargin in winning the B race in an indoor PB of 37.24.
