CAMBRIDGESHIRE CHAMPIONSHIPS, St Neots, January 21
Two weeks ago, the course in Priory Park was deemed unsafe to host the event, due to serious acres of waterlogged ground but here, all was well, if somewhat muddy, Martin Duff reports.
The experienced Ellen Leggate came out on top in the women’s race after scoring minor medals in this championship 10 years ago with a win by more than a minute.
The former women’s AAA 1500m bronze medallist back in 2001 with 4:18.13 was also a several time Varsity Track & Field winner for Oxford University, but has raced sparingly in recent years.
Men’s winner Chris Smith took his first senior title but had won the under-17 Cambridgeshire title back in 2017.

KENT COUNTY SCHOOLS’ CHAMPIONSHIPS, Dartford, January 20
A strong Kent cohort returned to the spectator-friendly venue of Central Park, James Taylor reports.
The mix of open sport fields and the short closing technical section, plus the novelty of schools’ age groups, led to an interesting range of tactics and some surprise winners.
Both individual and district team medals are awarded, but the main prize remains selection for the English Schools’ Championships, guaranteed here to the top four finishers.
The Tonbridge pair of Josh Prendergast and Tom Claridge pushed the pace throughout the Senior Boys’ race, gradually dropping all except the eventual winner, Franklin Shepherd. Better known as a track athlete, this was the Thanet man’s best cross country result to date. With Jake Stevens and Noah Paterson (both competing instead at Parliament Hill) to add, this Kent team will take some beating in Pontefract.
Bexley’s Iris Williams was a very impressive winner of the joint senior and intermediate girls’ race, leading throughout despite being in the lower age group. Medway’s Lauren Mitchell was second over the line but took the senior title narrowly from defending champion Carys Firth (Tonbridge).
In the absence of the usual pace-setter Joseph Scanes, the intermediate boys’ race was a scrappy affair. Maidstone contender Henry Gibson seemed to be involved throughout, with allegations of a shove mid-race and further argy-bargy in the finish tunnel with someone else. Following a heated conversation with the referee, Gibson was dramatically disqualified.
The race itself was rather cagey in the opening miles before the Tunbridge Wells pair Toby Bawtree and Connor Prendergast broke clear from the leading pack into the last lap, but perhaps they went too soon and were mugged by Joseph Hill (Bromley) and surprise winner Hayden Kelk (Canterbury), who judged his effort to perfection. Kelk, with only parkruns to show for his winter form, placed only 14th in this race last year.
Maidstone’s Freddie Gibson had a happier day than his brother, dominating the junior boys’ field. Charlie Warren (Tonbridge) expectedly nicked the silver in a close fight with Bromley’s James Shaw who had his best run on the mud to date.
Ashford’s Sophie Richmond made it three wins out of three this month with a clear victory in the junior girls’ race, having moved away from Aoife Macdonagh (Bexley) mid-race.
The Year 7 races saw the bottom-age U13s relishing the chance to race against their own year group for the first time all season. The boys’ event was an open affair, even into the last 400m, when the previously unknown Murphy Macdonagh (Bexley) came from behind to break clear in the final technical section.
The girls’ race was comparatively calm, as Tyler Jade Thomas expectedly upgraded her Kent U13 silver with a clear victory. Though representing Medway here, being a Dartford Harrier, she could consider this a memorable home win

SUSSEX MASTERS CHAMPIONSHIPS, Lancing, West Sussex, January 20
Linda Schofield, who topped the W50 10km rankings in both 2021 and 2022 and was second in 2023, won the women’s race overall comfortably and, with it, the W45 medal, Martin Duff reports.
On the Coombe Farm course, which was again pressed into service, the Brighton & Hove City runner led home all of the other younger women masters by a 40-metre margin as Worthing’s Alice Robinson was best of the rest.
Back in fifth overall and second W50 was former three-time AAA 10km road champion Caroline Hoyte, in only her second outing since September 2020.
Masters International Caroline Wood, who is a W60 athlete, won the W55-64 gold.
All of the women ran together but the male masters were split into two races; and it was Craig Halsey who made it Brighton & Hove double by leading his club to the M40 team championship as the few under-40s had their own team medals to go for,
Behind Halsey, who moved up from second last year, it was Brighton team mate Zared Hale who placed a close second with top M45 Howard Bristow some way further back.
The over-50 race was led home by the Haywards Heath pairing of James Skinner, the 2018 M45 British & Irish International Masters winner and Marcus Kimmins as they easily took the team golds.
In fourth spot in this older age group outing was Jonathan Burrell, the British Masters M60 1500-metres silver-medallist.
