YKH Medal Haul at Yorkshire Vet’s Cross Country Championship

Vet’s Cross Country Championship

 Nunroyd Park 28th September

 Beautiful late summer sunshine – soft and grassy underfoot with minimal mud and inclines- not the usual vets cross country conditions!

With three medal winning individual performances and a very close run 4th age category placing our seven YKH members did their club proud.

P1030917Barry Atkinson was our Gold medalist coming home as the 1st M55 and being the 6th man home overall in the M50 – 69 event. Silver medalist was Maureen Medlar F60 and our Bronze winner was Ian Bithell. Our ‘youngster’ Neill Stabbs only just missed a medal by 14 seconds coming 4th in the M35 category.
