trevor follows in his children's footsteps with track & field success

It has certainly been a busy few weeks athletically for the Hodgson family, with four of them being in action in a number of Track and Field events, in the colours of their club Morpeth Harriers.
Both Victoria and Alexandria picked up medals at the NECAA Championships at Middlesbrough in May, and they also competed for their club at Shildon in the second NEYDL match, along with Alexandria’s twin brother William, who made a welcome return to athletics action, following a spell of activity on the Rugby Field for one of the Morpeth squads.
But more recently it is Father Trevor, who has been carving out a reputation as one of the country’s top sprint performers in the Over 50 Masters category.
On Monday 5 June, Trevor posted the fastest time of 11.5s in the 100m, which was the fastest overall time at the NEMAA Track and Field League Meeting at Monkton Stadium, Jarrow, and cemented his No 1 placing nationwide in 2023, and also sees him ranked highly in both the European and World Masters Rankings.
A couple of days following his Monkton achievement, Trevor retained his crown at the National Police Championships at Nuneaton, clocking an impressive 11.8s, against a headwind registering minus two.
Trevor is also earning his place in the Morpeth Harriers Northern League squad, and competing against much younger rivals.
His improvement from a best of 12.4s in 2022 is quite phenomenal, and his club are more than pleased to be able to call upon his services.
