The England Athletics National track & field Championships at Alexander Stadium, Birmingham, again saw u17 Tom Webb come away as a national champion. Running over his favourite track distance of 3,000m Tom raced to victory in a time of 8.46. His victory follows up his national title from last year at the same distance. Retaining his national title is a good indicator of how consistent Tom has been the past few years either in spite of, or because of, his ferocious appetite for racing!
Meanwhile at the South West Regional T&F Championships held on the Sunday at Exeter a number of Harriers came away with either the SW Gold medal or a pb or both. Step forward SW Champions u13 Ruby Shaw, u15 Oskar Beck and Senior Men Luke Prior & Matt Lusby for some great running.
Read on for more details of the SW Championships and last Thursday's end of the month Open event hosted by our partners at Yeovil Olympiads - many of our junior athletes were in action. Also ...links to the Olympics....

Closer to home, the latest race in the Somerset Series saw Phoebe Aspinall win, once again, and Hon Life Member Luke Prior have a run out at one of his local race and never being headed. Phoebe, for the women, and Alex Coombs, for the men, look in a good position for the overall Somerset Series titles if they can keep their consistent running going.
