Welsh Paralympian Aled Davies has set a new F42 shot putt world indoor record at the Cardiff Met New Year classic.
Davies, who switched from coach Anthony Hughes to Ryan Spencer-Jones in the winter, started 2015 in strong fashion at the National Indoor Athletics Centre in Cyncoed, Cardiff.
Davies expressed his joy on Twitter by writing: "Cobwebs shaken off! 15.53m first competition of the year. Personal best and World Record. Big thank you to my coach @ryanshotput #JUSTDOIT."
The 23-year-old won gold at London 2012 and clinched silver in the F42/44 discus event at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games last summer.
