The five Grand Prix meets will be held in Manchester, Birmingham, Loughborough, Watford and Bury<\/h5>\n

British Milers’ Club have released the schedule for their Grand Prix meets next season.<\/p>\n

The five events \u2013 held in Manchester, Birmingham, Loughborough, Watford and Bury \u2013 are the showpiece BMC meets and have also doubled up as World Tour Challengers.<\/p>\n

Attracting some of the best athletes across the UK and the globe, the Grand Prix events tend to produce incredibly quick times over the middle distances.<\/p>\n

Cooper Teare, who trains with world 1500m champion Cole Hocker, produced a BMC 1500m record<\/a> of 3:33.96 in Bury on August 10.<\/p>\n

That same night, Kevin Robertson bettered Christian Stephenson\u2019s 8:25.37 in the 3000m steeplechase from 2000, clocking a BMC record of 8:24.37.<\/p>\n

Phoebe Gill, before becoming UK 800m champion and making the Olympic semi-finals over two laps in Paris, also recorded a BMC record<\/a> in Manchester on May 25.<\/p>\n

Showing no fear or inhibitions, the 17-year-old boldly followed pacemaker Seren Bundy-Davies through the bell in 54.95 and ended up running 1:58.07 over 800m, beating Ciara Mageean in the process.<\/p>\n

Over the season, Gill went under two minutes in the 800m on an incredible five occasions.<\/p>\n

The BMC’s aim is to improve the world standing of middle distance running in the UK, so expect more fast times next season.<\/p>\n
