Ruby Carter and Andrew Penney won silver medals in the SEAA London Championships on Parliament Hill on Saturday (8 November). Niamh Thompson in 20th, Claire Grima in 32nd and Rebecca Schofield in 54th brought the women’s team home in an excellent fifth, while Claire’s performance was good enough to win the individual W40 gold.
Behind Andrew (who last year took the gold medal in the same event), Jamie Millbank finished in 39th with Sam Peters one place behind. Sonny Nicoll’s 49th place clinched fourth place for the team.
The Club’s juniors were among over 1,800 young athletes competing for their boroughs in the London Youth Games event which traditionally takes place on the same day. The standout performance was delivered by Theo Creed, running for Merton, who took the U15 title (right).
