Final cross-country league weekend of the winter in the UK sees thousands compete for their clubs while 14 runners go sub-14min in Armagh in our road, cross-country and fell round-up

BIRMINGHAM LEAGUE, Division 1, Match 4, Northampton, February 10

Abingdon Park gave hosts Rugby & Northampton a boost but it was Omar Ahmed, the Midland championships second placer, who came out on top with his second league win of the winter, Martin Duff reports.

However, his Birchfield club lost out to the students of Warwick University, led by fourth placed Vincenzo Pratley, in the team stakes on the day. Nevertheless, Birmingham University who turned out a weakened squad after their BUCS title, had done enough in the earlier rounds to secure the overall league team title.

Behind Ahmed it was Western Tempos Dom James who was over 100 metres down with Leamingtons Baljeev Kandola back in third.

In the individual series standings, t was second match winner Charlie Davis who narrowly took the honours from Kandola, despite a ninth spot on the day.

Last seasons overall masters champion, Birchfields Ed Banks, was again top veteran to retain his series title.

Top Barn Farm at Holt Heath played host to the match as the Midland womens league second flight also joined in the fun, Martin Duff reports.

Alex Adams, last years Midland under-17 champion, again won the second flight match for Bromsgrove and Redditch, as his club cemented their march up to the top division of the league, Martin Duff reports.

CHILTERN LEAGUE, Match 5, Oxford, February 10

The course at Horspath, adjacent to the Mini factory, was again pressed into service for the final outing of the season, to continue its 50-year role as host to a Chiltern League match, Martin Duff reports.

All races again ploughed through the extremely muddy section adjacent to Brasenose Woods but only the senior men climbed up twice to the top of Shotover Plain before the steep descent down to the mud.

Local organiser and long-time veteran runner in the league, John Exley commented upon the winter racing schedule on the course. He said: Following Peter Crawshaws cancellation of the Southern Inter-Counties in December, we have had two very successful events on Shotover over the same courses and both in conditions similar to those in December which he cancelled.

These were the Oxfordshire League and county championship in January and this match.

Richard Slade completed a hat-trick of senior mens race victories and his fourth in all, with a 100-metre margin over Headingtons Matthieu Marshall, as Chiltern team mate Harry Cox took third, a similar distance further back.

The Chiltern club again won the match overall but could not close the lead built up by champions Milton Keynes in the early rounds.

The senior womens race again saw Rebecca Murray, the English National fifth placer, complete a clean sweep of league wins this winter to run out a comfortable victor by around 150 metres, over MK Distance Projects Emma Mears.

When notching up her fourth league win of the winter, Phoebe Gill the England and Commonwealth Youth Games 800m gold medallist, also enjoyed a solid victory in the combined junior and under-17 womens race. First league match winner Madeleine Pearce was again a distant second.

Nicholas Hammett won the under-17 mens event as Chilterns Tom Forde headed Milton Keynes Jacque Smith in the under-15 event.

In the younger age groups, Sophia Chapman notched up her third win of the campaign in the under-15 girls race while under-13 Kara Gorman completed her fourth, to again win the class.

Men (9.12km): 1 R Slade (Chilt) 32:40; 2 M Marshall (Head) 33:07; 3 H Cox (Chilt) 33:30; 4 J Parslow (Dac, M35) 33:58; 5 M Seddon (Brack) 34:00; 6 D Lawrence (Oxf C, M35) 34:10; 7 M Caddell (Wyc P) 34:44; 8 T Gray (Cors) 35:00; 9 S Garforth (Head) 35:08; 10 I Wood (Mil K, M40) 35:17; 11 J Farmer (L Buzz Tri, M35) 35:21; 12 L Busby (Wyc P) 35:30; 13 A Finch (Chilt, U20) 35:36; 14 K Hurst (Gway, M35) 35:38; 15 C Emmerson (Bed C) 35:40; 16 C Palmer (Bed C, M45) 35:48; 17 J Davis (VoA) 35:52; 18 W Galliford (SNH, U20) 35:55; 19 B Mead (L Buzz) 36:03; 20 J Edwards (Mil K, U20) 36:07; 21 H Pettingell (Thame) 36:11; 22 D Moffett (Head) 36:14; 23 W Harding (L Buzz) 36:16; 24 A Shute (Chilt, M40) 36:27; 25 A Williams (Chilt) 36:29; 26 A Humphrey (Oxf C) 36:30; 27 J Peters (Redway, M35) 36:33; 28 M Ashby (Gade V) 36:38; 29 W Burrard-Lucas (Wycombe Phoenix, M40) 36:42; 30 C Paul (Oxf C) 36:43

ESSEX LEAGUE, Hainault Forrest, February 10

In the senior mens race, Adam Hickey, Southends 2019 Inter-Counties winner, followed up his three second placings in the Essex League this winter with a first victory and with it the overall title, Martin Duff reports.

His conqueror on those earlier occasions, James Connor, was back in fourth but the Eastern champion was still top veteran.

Sarah Williams had four minor placings in the pre-Christmas league outings but here the Grange Farm & Dunmow W40 came out on top after previously competing for Shaftesbury Barnet in the Met League.

Elsewhere and in the young athletes races, Jacob Hurrell, the England under-17 1500m champion took his third league win of the winter, whilst under-15 winner Freddie Rowe won his third.

For the girls, under-15 Olivia Forrest continued her victory march, the day before winning the England indoor title over 1500-metres.

Brentwood Beagles team-mate Summer Smith, who also won a south of England title last month, was also in repeat winning ways in the under-13 division with her fifth win in a row.

HAMPSHIRE LEAGUE, Match 4, Bournemouth, Dorset, February 10

It was Dorsets turn to host a Hampshire League race as Kings Park with its fast running proved a good setting, Martin Duff reports.

However, while many top runners gave the event a miss there was still some good racing and Aldershots female youngsters continued their domination.

The senior mens event saw Thomas Sycklemoore, add his first league win of the winter and it was enough for the Basingstoke man to retain his overall league title after his 80-metre victory over Winchester & Districts George King.

It was close behind, as Luke Prior just headed top junior Jacob Atwell for third.

Aldershot, put out a weakened mens team which let in Basingstoke & Mid Hants on the day, but they had done enough in earlier rounds to secure the overall league team title.

The senior womens race was won by Katie Pye, the South of England under-17 silver medallist, from Aldershot senior team mate Kate Estlea-Morris, who was again second, as their club added another title.

Pye, a member of the Great Britain medal winning junior team at the European junior championships, was top ranked over 3000m last year and here added both senior and junior overall titles despite being under-17.

The young athletes girls races again saw the Aldershot pairing of Kitty Scott, the Southern cross-county under-15 runner-up and Poppy Guest, fifth under-13 in that Southern, come out on top in their age group races.

KENT LEAGUE, Norman Park, Bromley, February 10

Stephen Strange was a clear mens winner from Wegahta Zerom and led Tonbridge to another team victory on the day and in the overall season in the final league match of the season which this time featured just the seniors.

On a flat but muddy course, Tonbridge had three of the top four with Cambridge who packed their scoring quartet between fifth and eighth taking second on the day.

Tonbridge also dominated the 12 to score contest.

The overall individual standings showed that most of the very best athletes failed to show for all four fixtures and Medways Jamie Walsh came out on top with a highly consistent ninth, 14th, sixth and 13th.

M45 Anthony Webb was the best overall master but his first third, first and third was matched numerically by Ben Shearers second, second, third and first but he won overall by the time tiebreaker and Micah Evans was only a point and four seconds back on Shearer in third.

M50 Richard Tomlinson and M60 Graeme Saker won their section on the day and also took the overall awards.

The womens race was dominated by the hosts Blackheath and Bromley.

Blackheath had the top three Chloe Sharp, Amelia Smith and Jess Keene and also had two others in the top six.

One of those Carole Coulon won the overall league with two fourth and a third preceding her sixth here.

Fellow W45 Renate McDonnell was second overall and in the W40 plus sections while just missing out on third overall (on the time tiebreaker) W55 BMAF 10km silver medallist Maria Heslop dominated her category.

The only non Blackheath interloper was Abigail Royden in fourth, the daughter of former English National medallist Barry.

Not surprisingly Blackheath won the six to score event with Beckenham a surprise second but though they were fourth on the day in this section, Tonbridge won the overall standings.

MANCHESTER AREA LEAGUE, Kenworthy Woods, February 10

Track specialist Max Wharton was a classy winner of the mens race, run over 8km, in decent weather conditions at Kenworthy Woods, Stephen Green reports.

Sale Harrier Wharton, who has run 3:39 for 1500m, held a slight lead on the first short parade lap with team-mate Ryan Worland and Peter Taylor-Bray prominent from host club Chorlton Runners.

Through the tricky wooded sections and the Chorlton Alps Hill section at the back of the three-lap course, Wharton pushed on and was able to enjoy a nine second margin of victory from the fast-finishing Worland.

Sebastian Poma, of Manchester Met University, moved in third, just two seconds clear of TaylorBray.

The first under-20 home was Caleb Winfield from Buxton (11^th) with Michael Holness of East Cheshire first M40  in 13th.

Wharton also led Sale Harriers to a convincing team win, ahead of Chorlton Runners.

Emily Kearney, winner of two previous matches at Heaton Park and Wythenshawe, wasted no time in asserting herself in the womens race.

The Warriors athlete held a significant lead on lap one of the 8km race, the same course as the men, with Katherine Fitzpatrick of Chorlton prominent, alongside Kate Moulds and Amy Weyers.

Kearney made light work of the trails, sharp hills and playing fields to come home just over eighty seconds to the good from Fitzpatrick with Tracy Rogers, third around 120m down.

Taylor Massey (18^th) of St Helens was the first U20 finisher and First W40 was Salfords Laura Lombard in eighth.

Chorlton Runners were able to celebrate a team win, with Vale Royal AC in second place.

Liam Johnson of St Helens was almost 30 seconds to the good, in the under-17 mens section, from Rhys Bowden with Jack Heap third. Stockports Freya Murdoch again dominated affairs in the under-17 womens event, the best part of 400m clear of Nia Griffin, with Rosie Philbin third.

Isla Pastor of Warriors enjoyed 17 seconds of daylight over Izzy Hall with Rebecca Murphy third in the under-15 girls race. Pio Aron of Trafford finished top of the under-15 boys only Zach Rose of Stockport, could separate a phalanx of Trafford runners lead by Finlay Dobson Emmas, taking the next six places.

Liverpools Bobby McEvoy enjoyed a seven second win over Bobby Birkett in the under-13 boys race, with Peter Herring, third. In the girls event Warriors Eve Beddow was around 70m ahead of Beatrix Soper, with Isla Yorke third.

Tommy Calland from the Warriors club emerged victorious in the under-11 boys section, ahead of Loxley Schofield and Bobby Hughes. Fellow Warrior Daisy McVicar pushed ahead of Lucy OBrien and Cicely Coldwell in the girls counterpart.

START FITNESS METROPOLITAN LEAGUE, Trent Park, February 10

Oscar Bell who ran a 4:05.82 mile indoors at Lee Valley, three days earlier overcame the most extensive muddy course, of the five Met leagues to win the final fixture of the season, Alastair Aitken reports.

Bell decided to go to the front early on, over the treacherous mud but was joined by his clubmate Brett Rushman, just before the downhill on the final lap. Rushman was ill in the first part of the season but came 22nd in last years National.

Although challenging Bell, at one stage in the last lap, Bell kept his advantage. Bell said: I did take up the pace early on but some of it was so hard to run on. I had to pick my way through the valuable bits.

Terry Fawden overtook George Gurney and Thomas Butler to eventually come in third and led Highgate Harriers to their 11th overall Metropolitan League title consecutively and, that was without five of their top men at Trent Park. one being Roger Poolman who had won two Met Leagues but, was getting married that very day! Beforehand a solid Victoria & Tower Hamlets team looked as though they might threaten Highgate on the days competition at Trent Park but it was not to be.

As it was difficult in parts to stand up in the mud, without falling over, it was amazing that, the oldest person competing in the day Bob Gould, at over 80, was able to complete the mens field of 396 strong in just over the hour.

Former English National champion Liz Janes, who loves running Metropolitan league races, was a clear winner of the womens race. She had been 14th in the International at Parliament Hill Fields a few weeks earlier.

Rebecca Bunting was a good second all the way and led London Heathside to an overall League victory.

Shaftesbury Barnet were the Howard Williams Junior winners in the combined results but pressed by Woodford Green and Victoria Park & Tower Hamlets.

Luke Dunham won all his league races in the under-17s and said: The course was so muddy you had to pull your feet out of the mud as you ran. The season has been going well and I have been on 50km a week.

TRACKSMITH SURREY LEAGUE Div 1, Match 4, West Horsley, Surrey, February 10

The Grade I listed West Horsley Place, with its 380-acre historic park, played host to the final top flight matches of the winter and it was the first time, in its many centuries of existence, that the venue had been used, Martin Duff reports.

Second claimer Dylan Evans, who was sixth in the Southern championships for Shaftesbury Barnet, helped Belgrave just snatch the team plaudits on the day, for the second time this winter, However, it was second placed Hercules Wimbledon who had done more than enough in the earlier rounds who continued their stranglehold in the leagues team stakes.

Evans had a big winning margin over second placed Max Milarvie, who helped his Dulwich Runners club to a highest ever third on the day and also their best league position, of fourth, in the top flight.

Furthermore, Dulwich had the two top individuals in the final league standings as Milarvie and Edward Chuck comfortably headed the rest.

In the league basement, Ranelagh Harriers seemed to give up and now drop into the second tier along with Clapham, who continue with their up, then down, league movements.

Overall, in the mens match, the standard was lower than in previous rounds as the winter season reaches its championship climax.

Guildfords Suzie Monk, only fifth in the previous match, had a 50-metre win over Belgraves Emma Gordon, with Serena Carter a similar distance further back in third for Thames.

Despite Monks efforts, Guildford just lost out to Belgrave in the team stakes but only on final scorer as both scored 53 points.

There was however consolation as, following her second-round match win, Monk took the overall prize as Belgrave comfortably took the award for best team after the four fixtures.

In the young athletes events, Sutton & District had a lower turn out, than in earlier matches, but still took the U17 mens individual on the day, with Toby Cloves, as the missing Monty Hudson won the series award. and their club the team. Hercules made it two wins overall by adding the under-13 team award.

The under-15 girls race was again won by Epsom & Ewells Sabrina Coppola-Johansen which was enough to secure the individual league title from second placed Aaliyah Tharmakulasingam.

TRACKSMITH SURREY LEAGUE, Divisions 2, 3 & 4, Match 4, Croydon, February 10

Lloyd Park played host to the lower divisions of the league, with the men having two races, one for the second-tier match and one for a combined division three and four race, Martin Duff reports.

Jack Kavanagh, who had won the opening race of the Division two campaign back in October, took his third mens race for Holland Sports, with a winning margin of more than two minutes and, with it, the divisional individual title.

However, although well beaten by Woking on the day, Epsom & Ewell took the league team title and a return to the leagues top flight, along with their rivals who edged past Holland Sports.

In the other mens race, the combined division three and four outing, it was Alex Kilby who won for Walton and led them to promotion despite losing to Striders of Croydon on the day.

It was newcomers to the league Sutton Striders who headed fellow new boys Clapham Pioneers in the division four team race and both now go up to the next rung of the league ladder.

The womens division 2 match saw Martha Collings win for Woking, ahead of double winner Alice Crane, who had done enough in earlier rounds to secure the overall individual title for Dorking & Mole Valley.

However, it was Fulham who narrowly defeated Woking in the team race and both now move up to the top flight for next season.

SUSSEX LEAGUE, Match 4, Glyndebourne, East Sussex, February 10

The famous Opera venue provided a swansong for the leagues winter campaign and Robbie Fitzgibbon won the senior mens race for Brighton Phoenix but it was again their Brighton rivals who dominated in the team stakes, Martin Duff reports.

The 2014 English Schools 1500m champion won by nearly a minute, as junior Charlie Wright, the English Schools 2000m steeplechaser sixth-placer and Brightons Andrew Green followed.

Lewes ACs Ava James, continued her run of successes to secure an overall victory in both under-17 and womens standings.

In a statistical quirk, just two of the top 20 women were qualified seniors, with the rest either being young athletes or veterans.
