Ben Phillips competed in his first indoor pentathlon, contesting the South of England Championships at Lee Valley. Despite five new personal bests, one indoor best and two club records, he slipped off the podium in the final 800m event.
Fifth after the 60mH, he improved to second after the long jump. With a Club M15 Indoor Record of 12.14m in the Shot, he moved into the lead. Unfortunately the last two events, the High Jump and 800m, are his weakest events. He slipped to third after the High Jump, and to fourth after the 800m. His 2280 points is an inaugural Club M15 Indoor Pentathlon Record.
