Four Junior Ilkley Harriers were competing in their 1st Aquathlon , which consisted of a swim followed by cross country run, at Leeds Grammar School on Sunday. Bradley Chapman was first to go, and completed his 150m swim and 1200m run in 12:32. Emily Kerr then did her 150m swim and 1800m run in 11:53, a great achievement considering she was part of a very successfull team competing in the West Yorks XC the previous day. Then Dan Roebuck and Simon Chapman set off on the 400m swim, which they both completed in exactly the same time, before starting the 3000m run. Dan finished with a total time of 21:05 and Simon 23:58, slightly hampered by the fact he had been playing a match for Ilkley Juniors only a couple of hours earlier.
The Junior Ilkley Harriers U13 girls team was 3rd: 11th Ruth Kitchen 13:02; 13th Fiona Jordan 13:05; 15th Emily Kerr 13:17; and 22nd Alice Munnoch 13:57 - 41 ran. Harriet Midddlebrough was 33rd in 14:38. This is a wonderful start to the League. The next race is at Bramley Fall on Sat 30 Oct.

Ilkley's Mary Gibbons claimed first prize in the Girls' 15-16 race and younger sister Catherine took second place in the Girls' 13-14 event. Recent rain made for difficult conditions as runners took to muddy paths and scrambled over slippery rocks and trailing tree roots. The course was partly on The Dales Way long distance footpath from Leeds to Bowness on Windermere.

Vince Gibbons reports ... After a gasping start for Ilkley Junior
Harriers, Mary Gibbons claimed the prize for third placed female in a
74 strong field at the Jolly Holly Jog Fun Run.
Six Ilkley Harriers travelled to Ripon for the seasonal event, organised
by Ripon Runners, on Sunday 28 December.
Finding the start proved to be the toughest task of the day. There was
no provision for advance entries and the Ilkley athletes arrived at the
venue with just minutes to spare. Numbers were still being pinned onto
vests as the starting gun was fired!
It was a cold start as the Ilkley runners, deprived of a warm-up, gulped
down freezing air and chased off after the pack on the frosty course over
one and a half miles. Nevertheless, the entire Ilkley contingent finished
strongly.
Brothers Simon and Bradley Chapman came in close together. Simon was placed
23rd with a time of 13 min 38 sec, just ahead of Bradley, Ilkley’s youngest
runner in the Christmas race, 24th in 13 min 40 sec.
Ilkley results: 16 Mary Gibbons, 11minutes 57 seconds; 17 Patrick Gibbons,
12 min 02 sec; 18 Catherine Gibbons, 12 min 07 sec; 23 Simon Chapman 13
min 38 sec; 24 Bradley Chapman, 13 min 40 sec; 44 Eileen Gibbons, 16 min
30 sec.
Dave Woodhead's "quarry races" at Penistone Hill Country Park are a great introduction to fell running, and always attract a good field.
In the Under 8's race, we had 3rd Harry Williams 2:51; 4th Sam Wood 2:54; 13th Scott Marshall 3:56; and 14th Georgie Williams 3:58 - Georgie was the 3rd girl.
The U-10's and U-12's ran together in a 1 mile race. Tom Crane was 20th overall and 8th U-12 in 8:15; Alice Munnoch was 28th overall and 2nd girl U-12 in 8:34; Josh Crane was 37th, 8th U-10 in 9:09; and Bradley Chapman was 9th U-10 in 11:41.

Mary and Catherine Gibbons ran well in the Harrogate and Craven Schools Cross Country Championships at Aireville Park, Skipton. Both sisters achieved twentieth place in their respective events. Mary, 14, competed in a very strong Intermediate Girls field of 50 runners over 2750 metres. Younger sister Catherine braved strong winds to come home sprinting in a field of 60 runners for the 2000 metre Year 8 Girls' event. The young athletes were selected by their school, St John Fisher, Harrogate, for this North Yorkshire Schools County Championship qualifying meeting. Eleven schools fielded teams. The championships will be staged at Scarborough in January.
One of our junior Harriers, Alice Munnoch, competed in this league race at Leeds Grammar. She had a storming run finishing 4th in the U/12 girls race which had around 60 runners.
Five Junior Harriors tackled Kelbrook for the first time on Sunday morning on a perfect day for racing. All the Juniors enjoyed a well organised event with some stiff competition. Alice Munnoch was 19th (10th girl) in the U/14 race over 1.5m in 21:08. In the U/12 race over 1.25m the results were, Harriet Middlebrough 24th (7th girl) in 16:07, Annabel Smith 27th (9th girl) in 16:57, Bradley Chapman 28th (19th boy) in 16:58 and Kieran Roebuck 29th (20th boy) in 18:29. All the children did well as they were all competing against older and more experienced runners. A special mention for Kieran, who could have run in the much shorter under nine race and would have probably won a prize, but chose to run in the U/12 race. Also well done to Annabel's brother Oliver who came second in the U/9s and he is only six years old. A Junior Harrier for the future.
Emily and Sam Wood ran in the Stickle Pike Orienteering event in the Lake District. Emily was first on the JW1 course and Sam 2nd on the JM1 course

We had the first girl U8, Emily Middlebrough, 6th overall in 3:21; then 7 Oliver Smith 3:22; 8 Max Greaves 3:23; and 15 Drew Hanson 4:12. In the U10 race we had 21 Harriet Middlebrough 8:45 (2nd girl U10); 28 Poppy Liuba-Carmichael 9:06; 34 Bradley Chapman 9:49; 36 Jack Hanson 9:53; 38 Annabel Smith 10:03 (5th girl U10) and 41st Keiran Roebuck 10:13. These were all good results against experienced competition.

Simon Chapman was 5th in his age group; Mary Gibbons 6th; Bradley Chapman 9th; and Annabel Smith 6th - well done to all of them!.
A big local event, with races for all age categories and quality fields in all of them. The day started with the Under-11 girls running 1 mile around the Aireville School fields. Some of the new Junior Ilkley Harriers ran in this race. Fiona Jordan ran a well-paced race working her way through the field for a very creditable 2nd place in 8:52.
