It has been a great honour for me and my club Sunderland Harriers as it was way back in 1907 that the honour of Northern President was last bestowed on a Sunderland Harrier. Shortly after my appointment, I was off on my first assignment to the Border Harriers Brampton to Carlisle 10 mile Road Race. This is the oldest 10 mile road race in the UK and played host once again to the Northern Championship. I competed in this event myself some years ago and I know how fast this course can be especially if the wind is blowing in the right direction. This was the case on the day with the winner just missing out on dipping below the 50 minute barrier.

  • Medal Winner at National Combined Events Championships Danielle
    Medal Winner at National Combined Events Championships Danielle Hopkins from Worcester Athletic Club competed in the Under15 girls National Combined Events Championships in Bedford on 20 & 21 August. In very windy and showery conditions, the fourteen year-old competed in three events on each of the two days and finished the hexathlon winning the National bronze medal and the Midlands gold medal. Danielle started the first day running the 75m hurdles in a personal best (PB) time of 12.23 seconds, which placed her 10th out of the 40 competitors. This was followed by the long jump, where she did the 4th furthest jump with a distance of 5.19m, moving up into 6th position overall on the points table. The first day finished with javelin, which is her newest and weakest event (not unlike the Olympic heptathlete KJT!). A throw of 20.57m put Danielle in 8th position going into the second day, which started with another throw. A shot putt of 9.30m dropped Danielle into 11th position overall. However, as she is ranked second in the UK in high jump with a PB of 1.72m, Danielle showed her class by soaring over 1.68m, a massive 9cm higher than the second best high jumper on the day. The huge number of points gained in high jump moved Danielle up into 3rd position and only 12 points behind the girl in second place. The final event was the 800m. With tired legs but determined to try and win a medal, Danielle gave everything she had left and finished just behind the girl in the silver medal position to secure her bronze medal with a points total of 3471.

  • National & Midland Indoor Combined Events Championships
    Worcester Athletic Club’s young Combined Events athletes show their promise After being inspired by athletes Katrina Johnson-Thompson (KJT) and Niamh Emerson, who won the gold and silver medals, respectively, in the pentathlon at the European Indoor Championships in Glasgow earlier this month, Worcester Athletic Club’s young athletes showed their promise at the England Athletics National Under 17 and Under 15 Combined Events Championships in Sheffield, which also incorporates the Midlands Championships. Hannah Sahota, Amber Hopkins and Louisa de Vos all competed in the U17 pentathlon (60m hurdles, high jump, shot, long jump and 800m) with 46 other girls from across the UK in a very high standard competition, which saw the winner (Abigail Pawlett from Stockport Harriers) break the British record to be the first U17 woman to score over 4000 points in an indoor pentathlon. Sahota, a pupil at Bromsgrove School, achieved personal best (PB) scores in the shot and 800m and in her overall points score to finish with the Midlands bronze medal. Hopkins, a pupil at The Chase in Malvern and competing in her first indoor pentathlon, achieved PBs in the hurdles, shot and 800m to finish 6th in the Midlands. She said “My first pentathlon was so much fun and a great opportunity to compete alongside athletes from all over the country. I am now looking forward to seeing what the outdoor season will bring.” De Vos, a pupil at King’s Worcester, also competing in her first indoor pentathlon, finished 7th in the Midlands, with indoor PBs for shot and 800m.
