Loughborough's Joe Roebuck raced to his second British Record on the third night of the European Short Course Championships in Istanbul. Fresh from his British & Commonwealth 400m IM record set the previous night, Roebuck took to the pool for the final of the 200m butterfly. In a superbly paced race Roebuck held his own in a World Class field to take 4th spot and set a new British Record of 1:51.27. Commenting on his championships Roebuck said " I was disappointed not to make the podium last night but I've raced in 3 finals, recorded lifetime bests in each event, set 2 British Records and a Commonwealth Record. I've proved I can race with some of the best in the world...a good meet all round" The meet concludes tomorrow so there will be more exciting action from the Loughborough contingent Keep supporting your team! |
