Mid Lancs Track & Field League, Hyndburn - 24 July 2010 With the track and field season well under way a few of our juniors posted new personal bests today in the latest round of the Mid Lancs League held locally at Hyndburn. In the senior men's competition Jack Stringfellow tried out a new event in the 400 metres and ran very well finishing 2nd in his heat with a respectable time of 59.30secs. Joe Johnston was dissapointed in his performance finishing in 3rd place in the 1500 metres with 4.23.90.

North of England Track & Field League Rossendale Harriers hosted the second round of the North of England Track & Field Leauge at a very hot and sunny Longford Park, Stretford. In the men's competition Jack Stringfellow and Sam Walsh battled hard in the sprint events against some tough opposition. Joe Moores and Joe Kelly both ran well in the 400 metres but excelled in the 800 metres, Joe M ran full of confidence after smashing his personal best in Tuesday night's Trafford grand prix with 1min 55secs, and although not as fast today he still recorded 1min 58secs to finish 2nd, Joe K also had a great run to easily win the B race in 1min 57secs. Ashley Kay ran close to his best in the 1500 metres finishing with 4mins 08secs in 4th place a great effort after his bad fall on Monday and newcomer to the track Anthony Dalton ran a new personal best in the B race finishing 3rd with 4mins 26secs. Joe Johnston partnered senior Chris Fell in the 5000 metres and ran well to finish 2nd in the B race with 16mins 12secs. As ever our older juniors Phil Bolton and Aaron Barker gained valuable points in the hurdle events and Phil also found the energy to compete in the gruelling 3000 metres steeplechase partnering Jordan Beard and although water jump was taken out which would have brought some relief in the hot conditions both finished in 4th place in their race. The highlight of the day for the men was the 4x400 metres relay and with some tough opponents Rossendale showed their great team spirit, Joe Moores, Joe Kelly and Aaron Barker ran their legs superbly to hand over to Ashley Kay who managed to hold off a surge from Bolton to bring the team home first with a new personal best time of 3mins 33secs. The ladies competition was just as tough and Laura Johnston, Sarah Yeomans and Cat Gallagher put in some great performance and hard work to gain valuable points for the ladies. Emma Flanagan put in great performances over the middle distance events competing in the 800, 1500 and 3000 metres earning some good points for the ladies. The ladies 4x400 metres relay team of Sarah Yeomans, Cat Gallagher, Heather Corbishley and Emma Flanagan also put in brilliant effort to finish in 3rd place. The final result from the match saw Rossendale in 4th place but unfortunately had 16 points deducted which meant we were relegated to 5th place on the day.

Pennine Bridleway Relay - 31.01.2010 There were mixed fortunes today for our juniors running in the relay. The A team got off to a superb start with pairing of Phil Bolton and Ashley Holt bringing the team in 3rd, Joe Kelly partnered Gareth Jackson on the third leg and he also had a great run, 7th fastest on their leg, keeping the team in 5th place to hand over to the two youngsters of Joe Johnston and Ashley Kay. The pair finished 4th fastest on their leg and kept the team in 5th place, but after a fall from Ashley on the ice and some very ignorant riders and their horses blocking their path coming into the finish, this was a decent time for the pair. Emma Flanagan and Katie Ireland ran on leg 4 for the Ladies A team and finished fastest ladies on the day with a time of 45.21, nearly a minute faster than their time from last year. Jordan Beard and Joe Moores had a great run in the B team to finish 7th fastest on their leg, a great result despite Jordan also falling badly on the ice.
