North East relay heads a busy weekend on the country in our round-up of the action

NORTH EAST COUNTIES RELAYS, Thornley, November 18

Calum Johnson is a great ambassador for club events in the north east and he duly turned out for and helped his Gateshead club win this event which went ahead despite being touch and go with regards to the state of the extremely muddy going, Martin Duff reports.

Johnson took his club into the lead mid-race and they held on to win despite Connor Marshall closing rapidly for Morpeth on the final leg. Earlier, Cameron Allan had poked in a good third stage for Heaton at 11:08 for second quickest behind Johnsons 10:57 fastest split.

Morpeth took the womens race after taking the lead on stage two through Linzi Quinn and then Catriona McDonald finished off with a 13:10 fastest lap time for a comfortable win over Birtley, whose anchor Amber Leigh was second fastest with 13:25.

EASTERN ATHLETICS CHAMPIONSHIPS, Cambridge, November 18

A week after he had hoped to be running for England masters in the British & Irish cross-country international, Haverings James Connor posted yet another victory, Martin Duff reports.

The 40-year-old won by about 60 metres from Huntingdons Christopher Smith, as team mate James Stewart took third. Connor also added the Eastern AA vets, Eastern Masters and Eastern inter-counties titles.

The womens race saw Lucy Mapp win by almost a minute over Ginte Bailey who had the consolation of picking up the two masters titles on offer.

The best of the age group runners was again under-15 Olivia Forrest, who was fourth in both the Inter-Counties and English National, as well as fastest at Mansfield, who led her Brentford Beagles club to a clear under-15 victory.

LONDON CHAMPIONSHIPS, Parliament Hill, November 18

Dominic Nolan went into the lead after two miles, Alastair Aitken reports.

Nolan had been running with Seyfu Jamaal and Jack Ramm with Andrew Penny just behind that. He said: It felt so comfortable so, coming into the penultimate lap, I was holding myself back and, I thought, although it is a long way, I could sustain the pace and get a bit of a gap and I managed to do that.

A 13:53/29:13 5000m and 10,000m runner he considered winning the English National track 10,000m title in 2021 as his most outstanding result.

After Seyfu Jamaal, running into third place was former BMAF Masters cross-country champion Edward Chuck.

Jammal and Chuck had been one-two in 2022.

Chuck explained: I always like the finish coming down the hill and sprinting down and round the bend to the finish. You build up so much speed. I was hoping today that one of those first three would fall off the pace and that was when I moved into third.

London Heathside had four in 14 to be first team and they packed well with nine in the top 40 while runners-up Dulwich had just two of the first 40.

While muddy in places, the course was not bad in all parts, even though the scheduled earlier races for the London Youth Games were cancelled the night before because of the weather! On the day the conditions were good and 445 completed the senior mens race.

In the womens race Holly Dixon was in a group at the start and, after the first lap she took the lead.

At half way the first three were well spaced out, 50m apart, and on their own Dixon, Yvette Lock and former English Schools steeplechase medallist Morgan Squibb.

Dixon said: Last winter I had an Achilles injury so I did not run a lot. This week I have had a cold but Im on 70km a week currently.

Regarding inspiration, she added: In my club is a coach Glynis Penny and she has won the National which is a dream of mine. I am a long way off that but it is nice to be inspired by her. I really like running but I came from a gymnastics background from 6 or 7 to 17 so, I did not run growing up. I got an England selection for 5km on the road this year.

Holly Dixons mother is a good veteran athlete and Susan Dixon (58) came 93rd of the 261 finishers.

In second place in the race was Lock who was having her first competitive season, having previously been a hockey player but it was Thames Hare and Hounds led by Serena Carter in fourth who won the team contest from Belgrave.

BERKS, BUCKS & OXON CROSS-COUNTRY ASSOCIATION CHAMPIONSHIPS, Newbury Racecourse, Berkshire, November 19

Jack Shayler, who was fifth in the BUCS championships earlier this year, took this long-standing championship by more than 100 metres from James Lyne, Martin Duff reports.

Holly Haldane was the biggest winner on the day when she added the womens race by well over a minute as second placed Nikki Gray took the top masters spot.

With so many championships on offer, entry this year was down on those of previous years and some clubs gave the event a miss.

Before the start of the senior race a special presentation was made to BB&O Vice-President and former championship secretary Max Cowlin to mark his 50 years of service to the Association.
