A WARRINGTON athlete broke two club records in one day.

Over 60s competitor Julie Hicken achieved the feat while competing in the RJT Masters event at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield at the weekend.

The Warrington Athletics Club sprinter finished second in her 60m race in 9.22secs and was third in her 200m race in 31.15secs.

Both races were run with fields of mixed ages, and both male and female athletes.

And both times are club age-group records.

Hurdlers Lewis Shaw and Olivia Crawford maintained their excellent form when Sale Harriers held the fourth meeting of their Manchester Winter Indoor Open series at Sportcity on Sunday.

In the 60m hurdles, under 20 Shaw continued his winning streak in 8.14secs, missing his personal best time by two hundredths of a second.

He then set a season’s best time for the flat 60m of 7.30secs as he finished second in his race.

Under 17 Crawford won her 60m race, equalling her personal best time of 8.82secs, while in third place was second-claim member Evie Elliott with a season’s best 9.29secs.

In the flat 60m, Crawford and Elliott finished third and fifth in their race with personal best times of 8.09secs and 8.42secs respectively.

Their clubmates Chris Stanford and Steve Watmough competed in the British Masters Indoor Open, including the British Masters Championships at pentathlon and 3000m, which took place in Sheffield.

Stanford took the gold medal in the over 45s age group in 9mins 17.17secs which is a personal best time indoors and puts him top of the indoor rankings for the age group.

In the over 60s age group run over two races, Watmough finished eighth in his race in 10mins 37.81secs placing him ninth overall.

The North of England Under 13-15 Indoor Championships held in Sheffield featured five Warrington AC athletes.

Rosie Carters and Misha Neill ran in the under 13s girls 60m heats.

Carters was fifth in her race with a season’s best time of 9.39secs, while Neill was seventh in 9.85secs before tackling the 200m in which she finished fifth in her heat with an indoor personal best 34.30secs.

In the under 15s girls 60m, Laila Betteley ran a season’s best 9.38secs as she finished eighth in her heat and then set a personal best 31.20secs as she finished fourth in her heat of the 200m.

Also in the 200m, Leah Poole was third in her heat with a PB 28.69 secs plus she finished 13th in her pool of the long jump with an indoor PB 4.19m which placed her 19th overall.
