Buxton's Abbie Wood has beaten her expectations at the Commonwealth Games after winning a silver medal in the women's 4 x 100m freestyle.
Arriving in Birmingham intending to just 'enjoy the experience', 23-year-old Abbie has achieved beyond her dreams after a fantastic swim from Team England.
A stunning swim from Abbie and the team, England battled champions of the world, Australia, for the top spot in the pool.
The women held their own for a commendable amount of time, until the Australian team powered through to take gold.
