British Athletics League Cup Semi Final.
Gateshead International Stadium.
Sat. 19th July.
Gateshead Harriers comfortably
qualified for the final of the British Athletics League Cup Final
winning Saturday's Semi-Final at the International Stadium. Gateshead
now travel to Bedford for the Final in September.
Gateshead won ten of the eleven events
contested. Richard Kilty team captain for the Great Britain
squad that travelled to the recent World Junior Championships,
shaved a hundredth-of-a-second off his personal best time, winning the
100m in a legal 10.60secs.
Andrew Sturrock (110m Hurdles and
200m), Lewis Robson (400m), Andrew Wiles (1500m), John Stacey (Long
Jump), Gavin Howard (Pole Vault), Andrew Smith (Hammer) and Ian Burns
(Javelin) were also successful in their events.
Gateshead's Women team could not match
the strength of City of Edinburgh, from the Premier Division.
Lauren Dewdney, who took the English
Schools' title on the same track 7days earlier, easily won the 100m
Hurdles. Leah Weatheritt also gained victory in the Hammer.

English Schools Track and Field Championships.
Gateshead International
Stadium. Sat. 12th July.
Northumberland athletes, after an
indifferent start, had a very successful time on the second day of the
English Schools Track and Field Championships at Gateshead
International Stadium. The county took four gold, two silver and one
bronze medal.
Laura Weightman (Duchess High School,
Alnwick) started the run, with an excellent tactical victory in the
Senior Girls' 1500m, proving too strong for her rivals in the final 80m.
Niall Flannery (Royal Grammar), like
Weightman the Intermediate champion from 2007, took the Senior Boys'
400m Hurdles title.
Flannery's time of 52.48secs was a
personal best time, fractionally quicker than he set in the heats
of the recent England Athletics Under 20 Championships.
Tim Parkin (Ponteland High School) was
the next to take gold, clearing a personal best height (by 1cm) of
4.40m in the Intermediate Boys' Pole Vault.
Lauren Dewdney (Central High) improved
on her bronze medal in 2007, by winning the Senior Girls' 100m Hurdles
title.
Dewdney's time of 14.01secs was
fractionally quicker than her personal best set in Friday's heat, but
on this occasion was assisted by a wind speed above the legal limit.
Ross Murray (St Thomas More, North
Shields) last year's Intermediate champion, took second place in the
Senior 1500m, a position matched by Stacey Smith (Prudhoe High School)
in the Senior Girls' 800m. Smith had also taken the silver in the
Intermediate race at the same venue, two years ago.
Rebecca Liddell (Central High) took
bronze in the Junior Girls' 80m Hurdles. The Junior champion from 2007,
clocked 11.32secs a personal best but like Dewdney, she was assisted by
an illegal following wind..
Cleveland gained one gold medal, when
Kayleigh Mills from Hartlepool, was successful in the Intermediate
Girls' Hammer, throwing a personal best distance of 46.75m.
Laura Park of Cumbria, one of the
country's leading Cross Country runners, took her first track title,
when winning the Intermediate Girls' 3000m. Park, this time was
prepared to wait until the final 3 laps, before easily pulling away
from her nearest challengers.
Park, Mills and Parkin will represent
England at this weekend's International Match at Bedford.
Durham's best performance came in the
4x100m Relay, with the Senior Girls' team of Vicky Holmes, Amy Fleming,
Samantha Coleby and Nicola Pearson, finishing
4th..

the longest qualifying distance in the Intermediate Hammer, with a
throw of 43.49m.

Eric Appleby 1st M75 ( 61st in 25:02). Gary Pemberton (30th in 19:33)

names in results, but I think these listed here are correct. Best
quality in race
for many years, but number of runners down.

North East teams found the Southern
opposition too strong at Saturday's final of the Sainsbury's English
Schools Cup at Costello Stadium, Hull.
Best performance came from Park View
School in Chester Le Street, who finished in 7th place. The Durham
squad were the strongest team in the track events, leading at halfway,
but struggled in the later Field events.

Additional Comments: Most of info used. Full results courtesy of ESAA
website (and Simon Leonard). Weather wet for first two hours, sunny
next 2 hours, heavy rain, thunder and lightning for next half hour and
then sunny again. Unlike regional round when there are A and B events,
it seems that there is a random draw for heats in the Final.
Consiquently it is difficult to pinpoint where competitors were
actually placed in each event. Steph Loraine finished 2nd in C race and
was I think third fastest. As usual she held a large lead at the bell
and was only caught in final 30m. Disappointingly Rebecca Liddell did
not run in 80m Hurdles as the record (12secs) was at her mercy. The A
race winner clocked 11.9secs.
