GB veteran athletes excel at the global age-group event in Gothenburg, Sweden, from August 13-24
Just as in the Paris Olympics, the United States topped the medals table with 110 gold, 73 silver and 63 bronze with Germany (79, 66, 58) and Britain (70, 60, 57) completing the top three ahead of hosts Sweden (60, 46, 68).
Britain’s 187 medals was a significant achievement with many regular British medallists absent or injured.
However, the multiple gold medal winning performances of the likes of Evaun Williams, John Wright, Kathleen Stewart (pictured above), Sarah Roberts, Mark Symes, Andrew Ridley, Karen Brooks, Ian Broadhurst, Ellie Stevens, Peter Giles and Moira West were exceptional.
M35 men:
Britain won golds in both the 4×100 and 4x400m relay. The 4x400m team of Damaine Benjamin, Craig Cox, Lewis Robson and Dale Willis set a world record 3:16.53. European Masters indoors double medallist Willis had been disqualified from his 400m semi.
The 4x100m team was Isaiah Adekanmbi, Byron Robinson, Cox and Duayne Bovell as they ran 42.35 to take gold from Saudi Arabia and Kenya.
David Proctor won 800m bronze in a fast 1:51.72 and was also second in the 1500m.
South of England long jump champion Paul Ogun took long jump silver while Euro Masters indoor shot runner-up Craig Charlton added to his medal collection with a bronze.
Steve Garratt ran his fastest time for a decade with 53.23 400m hurdles heat and he was just slightly slower with 53.59 in the final.

Kojo Kyereme, who joins the M50 ranks later this year, just lost out on 800m gold in a dramatic finish and then was involved in another thriller in the 1500m where the top four were separated by a few metres.
Kyereme, who won the European indoor title in the winter, won in 4:10.75 with fellow former international James Thie third in 4:11.09 just ahead of team-mate Ian Williamson (4:11.16).
Britain also took three of the top four places in the 400m led by Gavin Stephens in second and James Colclough in third though were surprisingly out of the medals in the 4x400m in fourth with Ireland winning.
Mensah Elliott won the 110m hurdles into a strong headwind by three metres while Grant Baillie won the steeplechase by less than half a second with Sullivan Smith third.
Tamuononegiye-Ofori Ossai won medals in both sprints.

Andrew Ridley, who joined this age group in the summer, won the 800m in 2:09.67 and then took gold in the 1500m ahead of Kenyan Robert Kibet, who is believed to be the 1990 Commonwealth 800m finalist who has a 1:43.66 800m and 3:52.48 mile PB.
Ridley’s 1500m time of 4:24.23 just missed the world record but is a British and championships record.
Rob McHarg was third in both races. Ridley also won a silver in the 4x400m relay where Germany won in a world record 3:51.19.
Andy Leach won the 5000m with Ben Reynolds third.
Barrie Marsden was second in the 100m hurdles and Britain also took silver medals in the 4x100m relay.

Sarah Roberts proved to be Britain’s most successful middle-distance runner in Sweden on the track as she won golds at the 800m, 1500m and 5000m.
Her 5000m time of 20:58.33 was a championships record and only just missed Angela Copson’s world and British record by a couple of seconds and remarkably Roberts enters the W75 age group in October.
It is easily her quickest 5000m or 5km time according to her Power of 10 records.
A more established GB medallist over the years, Sue Yeomans, finished second in the pole vault.
Emily McMahon gained a 80m hurdles bronze while many times winner Caroline Powell gained a 400m silver and 200m bronze in some very competitive events.
Yeomans and Powell were in Britain’s winning 4×100 team along with Anne Nelson and Caroline Marler.
Canadian Karla Joan del Grande won the 100m in a world record equalling 14.70 but only won by a hundredth of a second from Chile’s Sara Montecinos who went on to win the 200m in a world record 30.79 and the 400m in a world record 70.62.
