IN the athletics equivalent of football's FA Cup Final on Saturday, Cofton Hackett's Karen Reeve finished third in the 3,000m.
The event at Bedford featured the UK's top eight athletics clubs and Birchfield Harrier Karen produced a brave run after a few months of injury.
She ran strongly to overtake several athletes on the last lap to finish third in ten minutes 31 seconds, which was nearly a personal best.
A glutton for punishment, she was in action again at 3,000m on Sunday, this time in the Midland Athletics League Division One at Perry Barr.
Karen was still tired from Saturday's performance but ran well to finish second in ten minutes 35 seconds.
