Comments:-

Well another fantastic day’s racing with the sun bright, beer cold and clear blue skies. A frost overnight made the ground conditions firm, the only problem being some slippy patches of sheet ice on the descents, particularly at the back of ‘The Monument.’ The leaders went off at a cracking pace and I have a report that there was an early leader some 200 yards clear at one mile. I have had it confirmed that Robin Bergstrand and Paul Lowe were some 100 yards clear of Rob. Cole at Captain Cooks Monument. Robert did not lose his head however despite the two in front holding the fastest and second fastest times for this course. He gradually reeled his two club colleagues in to move past them in the final mile to win by a reasonably comfortable margin of five seconds. One up for the Junior Men!

In the women’s race it was a similar scenario with Catherine Hare, Karen Slater and Alison Raw all within a few seconds of each other at ‘Cooks,’ with Catherine Hare gradually moving ahead of Karen Slater and holding her off in the final stages with an excellent finish  setting a new course record. One up for the Junior Women!

It was a real pleasure to see both races won by talented Juniors. This gives Catherine 30 points in the N.E. Counties Junior Fell Championships 2000. ( as she was 17 years at 31.8.99.) In fact this was the first race on the first day of the year, as we began the inaugural N.E.Counties first ever Junior Fell Running Championships. Reference to the Junior Race will give you the points gained by males and females in the novice category. Further information concerning the counting events in this championship can be gained by contacting the writer.

Well best wishes for the new year. If it is a new decade then perhaps I should say Welcome to ‘The Noughties’ ( or should it be The Naughties!)
