DAVID BARNETT has been one of the best-known faces in British athletics for more than 30 years.
He was a good runner in the 1970s when finishing sixth in the English Schools junior boys’ 800m. He had a best of 1:54.1 at the age of 17. However, it was for organising travel to the major athletics events that Barnett made his mark.
To celebrate Track and Field Tours’ 25th anniversary at England Athletics’ Hall of Fame Dinner, Barnett awarded a club group prize package with tickets and accommodation to Stockport Harriers for 25 club members (20 to be under-16) to attend the 2017 World Championships.
