Trevor Hodgson, Morpeth Harriers’ prolific Over 50 Veteran, continued his current run of excellent form when he took his age group 60m title at the North East Counties Indoor Track and Field Championships, held on 18 and 19 February at Gateshead College.
On the second day of competition, Hodgson won comfortably, producing a fine 7.54s, which not only gave him a much-prized Gold medal to add to the one he had won in Scotland seven days earlier, but it was a time that would have won him a British Masters title had he been able to travel to Sheffield to contest the event. It also sees him ranked as fourth in the world in his age group. Another Morpeth Harriers Gold Medallist at the Championships was Under 20 Woman Triple Jumper Charlotte Earl, who took her title on Saturday, producing a best of 11.51m. Also on Saturday, Morpeth Under 20 Long Jump specialist Abbie Ross won a Bronze medal, with her on the day best of 4.41m. Returning to Track action, Under 17 Women Freya Caygill and Amelia Hamlin won their way respectively to 60m A and B finals. Caygill qualified for the A final, finishing sixth, posting a time of 8.24s, whilst Hamlin was third in the B final in 8.47s. Comments are closed.
