In what was a very competitive race, with half the course completed the lead girls were still running as a pack which included Eilish McColgan (Dundee Hawkhill Harriers), last year's Under 13 Inter-Counties winner, running for the first time in the Series as an Under 15, Nicola Morgan (West Suffolk AC), Catriona Sinclair (Edinburgh Southern Harriers), Natalie Grant (Rotherham Harriers), Kate Hindle (Preston Harriers), Rebecca Finch (City of Glasgow AC) and Carys Davies (Sarn Harriers). It was not until the start of the final hill that this group had been broken down to five with each of the girls each spread out some ten metres apart. Kate at this point taking the lead from Natalie, then Eilish, Nicola and Catriona. Natalie who participated in the UK Athletics week long training camp at the St Mary's Endurance Centre at Twickenham in June, found the speed on the final stages to eventually take the race from Kate and Eilish.

A fast start saw Kate Hindle (Preston Harriers) take the lead but it was Rebecca Gough, the winner at Parliament Hill, who came through to finish first. Despite Hindle opening up a gap Gough remained in contention, just sitting off the pace. Using the same fast finishing tactics that she used in London, Gough outsprinted her rivals to cross the line in 10:03.

Clearly suffering the effects of the early fast pace Hindle was passed by Sophie Crumly (Newbury AC) with Crumly clocking 10:08 to Hindle’s 10:13.
