The second race in the Buxton Athletic Club Juniors Fell Championships took part as part of Tansley Hill Fell Race on Wednesday.  A fabulous turn out of 16 Buxton juniors took part with excellent results all round!

In the Under 8 race Jimmy Golden came in 8th boy  with Lexi Thomlinson 9th girl.  Henry Hazelhurst came 8th in the Under 10 race – earning top points in the Champs – followed by Matthew Rolfe in 10th and Liam Jones in 11th.  The first medal was won by Molly Golden who was first Under 10 girl overall.  A great turn out in the Under 12 girls race saw Grace Longden finishing in 2nd place, Sienna Phillips 4th, Lucy Whelan 6th, Rebecca Cudahy 9th and Esme White 9th.

In the Under 14 category Buxton dominated with Will Longden winning overall, Louis White 3rd and Amy Whelan was first overall in the Under 14 girls category.  Running in the gruelling 4 mile Under 16 race were Ellie Wilson and Heather Wilshaw.  Ellie finished first overall – “chicking” the first boy into second place!  Heather came third girl overall.
