Bailey gunning for 2012 London Games
Promising youngster Emma Bailey has set her sights on the London Games after an impressive showing at the Olympic Trials in Birmingham last weekend.
Bailey, who turns 24 later this month, was in sparkling form as she reached the women's 100m semi-final before clocking 24.80 seconds in the 200m heats.
And the Rugby & Northampton AC star said: "My aim is to be back here in a few years time and really go for the Olympics.
"Even if I could improve enough to get into the relay squad that would be a dream come true for me.
"To be competing here is amazing and hopefully the experience I have had here will stand me in good stead for the future."
