The 16-year-old, who travels to Singapore next month to context the World Youth Olympic title, cruised through the heats today (Friday 9th) in Birmingham's Alexander Stadium. The semi-final and final are tomorrow, and Bolarinwa's target is 10.54s

Coach John Powell will be hoping for a the omens this week to work positively, with senior springer James Ellington setting foot back on a track this week for the first time since his tragic hamstring tear in Geneva a month ago to the day."James is looking great in terms of getting back to stake a claim for Commonwalth Games selection," said Powell, "and the English Schools is a great stage for David to prepare for Singapore."
One other Trackspeed1 athlete competing in Birmingham is 15-year-old Omari Carr-Miller. Having suffered a winter ravaged by injury his summer was always going to be difficult, but he has got back at least to last year's best form with a 50.31s third place in the inter' boys 400m heats today, which was good enough to see him through to tomorrow's semi-final.
