Northampton teenage sprint champion determined to make Olympics

A teenage runner who has just won a national Under-15 sprint competition said she was focused on future Olympic success.

Savannah Morgan, from Northampton, won the 100m in the National Schools Championship, having trained several times a week from a young age.

The 14-year-old credited running for helping her cope with the Covid pandemic and facing the start of GCSEs.

She said: "I still have the same ambition to be an Olympic champion in the 100 metres and represent my country. There's definitely more to come, so watch this space."
