A YOUNG Hereford athlete has been making waves and came away with a host of medals from an open meeting.

Hereford and County Athletics Club member Charlotte Colbert ended the summer season on a high after attending an open throws meeting in Wrexham called the 'Final Fling'.

Youngster Colbert won silver for javelin and discus, gold for shot and gold for hammer, with a post-surgery personal best in the latter.

Finally, and bringing her medal tally to five, she won gold for the throwathon discipline. 

Colbert’s is the latest success story from the Hereford club who have won a host of medals across the athletics disciplines this summer.
