The Rochdale Harriers Athletics Club and Aquabears swimming club member swam the 50m in 36.77 seconds and ran the 800m in 2 minutes 55.49 seconds. He scored a total of 2,096, his highest ever.
Adam, who is an active scout and also enjoys judo, is looking forward to competing in triathlons later this year.
