Home Internationals U20 decathlon, Hexham, 25/26 July

Shirley reports.... Harry Maslen was selected to represent England at the U20 Decathlon Home Internationals held at Hexham over the weekend. As a result of sound winter training Harry has shown brilliant form of late and this was his final opportunity of the season to increase his points total and rankings.
Unfortunately the weekend was generally wet and windy which although far from ideal Harry was able to produce performances close to his best in most events and had PB's on the second day in his 110m hurdles and pole vault. Day 1 performances - 2nd, 100m 11.49; 4th, long jump 6m.61; 2nd, shot 12m.35; 2nd, high jump 1m.88; 3rd, 400m 51.44. This gave him 2nd place overall with 3551 points. The second day started strongly with 5th, 110m hurdles 15.42 (PB); 3rd, discus 34m.55; 3rd, pole vault
3m.90 (PB); 2nd, Javelin 45m.38; 6th, 1500m 4m.48.12. Competition for podium places was close throughout the two days and going into the 1500m Harry was lying in 2nd place overall by just one point to an exceptionally fast runner. Harry's final points total was 6,646 which is a PB and puts him 4th in the national rankings. Importantly he enjoyed the competition and was exceptionally thrilled to be wearing an England vest and standing on the podium in the bronze medal position. It was the most perfect conclusion to a good season - an achievement recognised by UKA coaches in attendance.
Harry started athletics with junior Ilkley Harriers doing sportshall athletics and has gradually progressed up through the track and field programme. He has been the most talented and dedicated athlete we have ever seen and I along with the rest of Ilkley Harriers wish him well as he continues his training and studies in Texas, USA. We all hope that this has been the first England vest of many.

Unfortunately he was not well but the excellent training that he has been doing showed what a truely exceptional athlete he is even when not on par. On day 1 he ran 11.3 in the 100m jumped a PB of 6m.77 in the long jump, followed by a second PB of 13m.25 in the shot an outdoor PB of 1m.92 in the high jump and finished with a 53.3 in the 400m. He finished in the lead but overnight he was worse and despite travelling to Doncaster for the second day decided to withdraw from the competition. Over the next few years I am certain that we will hear of Harry's further successes.

Turner Uphill Fell Championships, Duddon, Sat 20 June

Report from George

Burnley U11 Open T&F meet, Sun 14 June

A good little meet for Years 2-5, very friendly and well organised. Hopefully more will want to do this next season. Rohan Smith and Farrah Kennedy Harting were competing for the first time for JIH and they both did exceptionally well. Rohan won both the 600m in 1.56.4 (which is a new junior club record) and the 75m in 11.5 and was 4th in the long jump with 3m.30. Farrah ran the 150m in 28.1 and the 50m in 9.4 and threw the rounders ball 15m.60 which gave her third place and a bronze medal. It was good to see both of them on the podium. Well done.

English Fell Championships race 5, Malham, Sat 30 May

George Elmes reports...... 13 JIH’s travelled up to picturesque Malham to compete in round 5 of the championships. As always a very challenging but enjoyable course for all. Probably our best collective results of the championships with the standout performance being Jemima Elgood who dominated the GU16 race to finish with a massive gap of 31 seconds in front of the 2nd placed girl. Fantastic performance Jemima! Podium places also for Ruaridh Mon Williams 2nd BU18, Lucy Haines 3rd GU16, and Poppy Anderson 3rd GU12.

Full results –
GU 10 Robyn Anderson 6th, BU10 Archie Budding 19th
GU 12 Poppy Anderson 3rd BU 12 Lewis Carr 11th
GU14 Emily Elmes 23rd BU14 Euan Brennan 4th, Robbie Matthews 15th
GU16 Jemima Elgood 1st, Lucy Haines 3rd, Sarah Pickering 5th, Lucy Jacques 19th
GU18 Lucy Williamson 6th, BU18 Ruaridh Mon-Williams 2nd.

The great set of results meant that in the Club championships we moved up from 4th to 2nd place out of 58 clubs competing. Last year we finished in 4th place and our objective for this year was to improve once again , something we have successfully achieved as a squad in every one of the past 4 years. The last race in the Championships is the Turner uphill Championships in the Lake District on Sat 20th June. This is the weekend of the JIH camping “do” which will be held at Turner Hill Farm Campsite (which is only 500m from the start of the race.) A number of people are staying over and it would be great to get as many possible to run the race and camp over to celebrate another successful year for the entire Fell Squad. Thanks to all the JIH’s that have competed in this year’s championships with great efforts from all , 4th last year, currently in 2nd so let’s get as big a turnout as we can to finish as strongly as we can.

Hope to see you in the lakes!

England U20 Combined Events Champs, Bedford, 23/24 May

Harry Maslen competed in the England U20 Combined Events Championships in Bedford over the weekend (decathlon).
On day 1 Harry achieved 3 personal best performances in the 100m (11.26); shot (13m.15) and 400m (50.15) and with strong results in his long jump (6m.53) and high jump (1m.88) he finish the day with 3688 points and 200 points clear of second place.
The second day started strong with a PB in his 110 Hurdles (15.45) and a good discus (35m.19). Competing over two days and with 10 events there are bound to be times when events go well while others are below par. So along the way the athlete must contend with highs and lows and the whole weekend becomes as much a test of character and attitude as personal physical achievement. Pole Vault is normally an event that Harry would expect to pick up 500-600 however failing to clear any height left him with no chance of taking the championship title. Now back in 4th place he ended the day by produced two of the most amazing performances of his short career. In the javelin he threw 51m.89 (a PB by over 5m) and in the 1500m he ran 4:38.98 (a PB by 16 secs). He finished the event with 6355 points and stood on the podium in silver medal position. He was also crowned Northern Combined Events champion.
This was his first competitive decathlon of the season and showed that all the winter training under the guidance of Sam Stanislaus is paying off. Although clearly disappointed with a couple of aspects of his performance he is already looking forward to other competitions to make amends. Many congratulations on such an outstanding weekend.

FRA English Fell Champs race 2, Pendle, Sat 4 April

George reports... 12 JIH’s made it across the Pennines to compete in round 2 of the FRA championships hosted by Clayton – le – Moors. This was also the Lancashire championships and hence the competition was pretty stiff.
As normal Pendle was a tough challenge with a steady climb out of the bottom field for all. The majority all climbing to and beyond Buttock Farm for their respective turns. Lucy and Joanne Williamson in the U18’s continuing to the trig point 340m up. The weather held up, clear blue sky with a decent breeze to cool all on the climb up overlooking the shimmering Ogden Reservoir .
Some good results from all but standout performances from Jemima Elgood and Sarah Pickering for first and second respectively in the GU16 race.
Full Results –
U8B Jonathan Archer 5th, Nicholas Archer 19th

Round 3 is hosted by Holmfirth Harriers on Sat 18th at West Nab near Huddesfield. Its also the Yorkshire Championships so let’s see if we can get a good turnout, get some good individual results and also push us into one of the top 3 places in the club championships for the first time.

PECO league race 5, Roundhay Park, 1st March

Gaenor reports... There was some great running on Sunday by our junior harriers at the last PECO race of the series. The course was well drained and good running condition but the strong winds combined with an extremely steep bank (which the year 7 to 12’s had to do twice) made it a tough course.

English National XC Champs, Parliament Hill, London, 24 Feb

Gaenor reports... Well done to the 10 junior who travelled down to London to compete in the English National Cross Country Championships at Parliament Hill Fields in Hampstead Heath. Despite a dry day the underfoot conditions of the undulating course were extremely muddy in large parts, making the running difficult.
Sarah Pickering and Elizabeth Westhead kicked off first with the under 17 women’s 5km race and a good Ilkley finish from Sarah who ran strongly finishing just outside the top 50 in 52nd place.
Next up was Euan Brennan, Cameron Reilly and Francis Westhead running in the 4.5km under 15 boys race.
A break for Ilkley juniors to watch Georgia Malir finish strongly in 11th position in the 6km Junior women’s championship. Well done Georgia!
Next was the 3km under 13 girl’s race with Bethan Morley, Ella Shouler-Harris and Charlotte Elston. There was a long wait then for Dominic and Nathan Coy for the 3km under 13 boy’s race – the final junior race of the day. Everybody ran extremely well in the ever increasing mud bath within a very competitive field.
Thanks to Emily Elmes and family who although she was unable to run due to continuing injuries gave fantastic support to all throughout the whole day.

English U20 Indoor Combined Events Championships (Heptathlon), EIS, Sheffield, 10/11 Jan 2015

Not only were the best in the country competing but an England place was at stake for the first 3 finishers and the event incorporated the Northern Indoor Championships (22 U20's were competing). Harry Maslen has been getting stronger throughout the season and has had good winter training under the guidance of Sam Stanislaus who now coaches him in Gateshead. On Saturday he competed in the 60m (3rd fastest in 7.31 (PB)), long Jump (2nd in 6m 63 (PB)), shot (12th best in 11m 01) and pole vault (8th best in 3m.81 (PB)). This put him in 4th place with just 1 point adrift of 3rd. On the Sunday he competed in 60mHurdles (3rd in 8.58 (PB)), high jump (3rd in 1m 89) and the 1000m (3rd in 2.48.28 (PB)). It was a remarkable two days of competition. Harry finished in 4th place with 4943 points. His points total was incredibly high for someone not to make it on to the podium however it was a great achievement and one that he can be massively proud of. His friend and training partner from Gateshead (Anthony Hogg) won the competition breaking the 5000 point barrier and I am sure that over the coming year they'll push each other in training and competition. Harry gained a silver medal as runner up to Anthony in the Northern Championships and has been selected as a non travelling reserve for the GB and NI team in the U23 20 International indoor match combined events in Nogent-sur-oise, France on the 24/25 January.
