West Nab English Junior

West Nab English Junior Fell Championships

31st May

Despite this race being in Meltham Yorkshire, we had an excellent turnout of eleven children racing and on a difficult and technical course. All performed well.

In the U/10 Girls race we had our first Gold Medalist in Ella Pendlebury with a breathtaking run she was only beaten by 8 boys to record a famous win and keep her on course for a podium place at the seasons end.

In the U/10 boys race Cian Healey again showed a clean pair of heels to most of the field to finish third despite a nasty fall when with the leaders. He is another runner with his eyes on a top three placing at the seasons end.

Other good runs came from Ellie Green in the U/8 race with a 7th place and Freya Whittle 10th in the U/10 race.

The U/12 boys was very competitive. Tom Massey lead home the Horwich team in 7th place with good backing from Nathan Lancaster and Robert Seddon.

Our only representative in the U/14 was Harriet Foley and with her highest placing this season of 12th after a good race.
