Remarkable outcome sees three R&N athletes all clock the same 100m time on a
day of success at Kettering
Three Rugby & Northampton Athletic Club athletes recorded a unique finish at Saturday’s Kettering Open by taking the first three positions in exactly the same time.
Rico Ewer, Tom Cheyne and Clinton Osoba-George helped R&N run in a blanket one-two-three finish in the 100 metres and they were all credited with a time of 11.3.
It was just one of a series of tremendous results for R&N athletes with notable highlights including a string of personal bests recorded. The open event pitches athletes of similar abilities against each other with the emphasis on improving personal times and distances.
Abigail Pearce produced a breakthrough display in the under 13 girls Javelin – a result that moves her up the rankings and into the top six in the UK after a throw of 24.18. Evie Harris-Jenkins recorded her own personal best in the under 17 girls with a distance of 36.18.
Adele Blenkinsop put in two PB performances to show her versatility by reaching 6.45 in the under 13 girls Shot Put and clocking 14.2 in the 100m. Her double success was matched by under 17 girl Kiona McLennon, who posted 11.83 in the shot and 13.4 in the 100m – crossing the line with Rachel George to give both a PB, with Elizabeth Truslove also impressing in a time of 13.6.
Sachin Thethy posted a PB in the under 11 boys 75m with a time of 11.2, then recorded another individual record of 22.2 in the 150m, while there were more personal records for Brett Mason (under 20 men, 53.4) in the 400m and Katie Clubb (under 20 women, 64.2) on a promising debut at the same distance. Clubb also added an excellent 2.26 in the 800m.
Adam Searle produced another stellar performance in the under 15 boys 1500m with a PB time of 4:34.5, while in the same category, Matthew Rushton improved his fastest time to 4:51.5.
Further significant times came in the 1500m from under 13 girls Georgina Woodward (5:23.7) and Holly Walker (5:32.0), while Josh Lay (under 15 boys) took his own 800m record to 2:17.8 and Ben Hope (under 13 boys) continued his promising start to the season with another best of 2:30.1 at the same distance.
The U17 and U20 athletes now move on to the first round of the Youth Development League at Birmingham Alexander Stadium this weekend.
