Hallamshire Girls Glitter at
Yorkshire Cross Country Championships
On Saturday
5th January 2008, Hallamshire Harriers Ladies achieved almost a
clean sweep of the team medals at the Yorkshire Cross Country Championships,
held at Fartown, Huddersfield. A deceptively tough course proved to be
exceptionally challenging, so it was especially pleasing to record multiple
successes. The Under 13 Girls, Under 15
Girls and Senior Women all won Team Gold.
The Under 17 Women joined them with Silver: Rotherham
having taken this Gold medal, with an superb 1,2,3.
Six Hallamshire
ladies can expect a Yorkshire
County selection by finishing
in the top six individual places. Hannah
Fletcher, Clare Wilsher (U13G); Calli
Thackery (U15G);
Kelly Hewitson (U17W); Julia Russell, Lizzie Adams (SW).
Their male
counterparts did not enjoy the same level of team success, with 4th
places for the Under 17 and Senior Men.
Andy Heyes can also expect a Yorkshire
call up after finishing 4th in the Junior Men’s race.
