HAMPSHIRE'S
under-13 and under-15 girls are sporting a golden glow this week after
triumphing in the Reebok UK Inter-Counties Championships at Woollaton
Park, Nottingham.
Although
Aldershot athletes dominated the under-15 placings, the under-13 triumph
was very much a south coast affair with Southampton City, New Forest
Juniors and Stubbington Green Runners providing three of the four scorers.
Stacey
Preston of Aldershot, Farnham & District was the individual silver
medallist and then came Southampton City's Jodie Bowers in a battling
ninth place from 292 finishers.

Pre-race - English
Schools Track & Field Championships:
HAMPSHIRE will be out to rediscover their golden touch at the English Schools'
Track & Field Championships, which begin in Gateshead today. Crofton's
Rebecca Gough, currently third in the UK under-15 girls' 3,000m rankings, will
compete in her favoured 800m event.
Rebecca was 4th in the
Junior Girls' 800m heats at the English Schools
in July, in 2:18.19, outside of her PB, after letting the front 3 runners pull
away about 5 metres in the early stages. She failed to qualify for the final as
non-starter Stacey Smith was not replaced in the line-up for the final, although
she broke her arm falling just before the line in her heat.
26th September - In the U15
girls' seasons outdoor rankings Rebecca lies 7th in the 3000m rankings with
10:37.4 run at the start of the season in Portsmouth.

| Despite
an early lead by Blue Haywood (Lincoln
Wellington AC), Sarah Hopkinson
(Gloucester AC) took control in the final stages of the 3km course, to
come home first in 13:21 ahead of Jordan Kinney (Royal Sutton Coldfield)
who chased her hard to the line. Rebecca Gough (Team Southampton)
finished strongly to take third spot |
|
Pre-race:

Rebecca
Gough (Team Southampton), the Hampshire Schools junior girls and Hampshire
County under 15 girls 800m and 1500m champions, came powering through to
snatch victory in the girls under 15 race.
In
one of the most dramatic finishes of the day the lead changed three times
in the final 100 metres with Gough getting squeezing home by one second
from Charlotte Purdue (Aldershot, Farnham and District).
"I
knew I had a fast finish. I've been working on it in training,"
said Gough who was third with 100m to go. |
Gough's a fast finisher
TEAM Southampton's
Rebecca Gough triumphed in one of the day's most dramatic finishes at
third meeting of the Reebok Cross Challenge Series at London's Parliament
Hill.
Amazingly, the
lead changed hands three times in the final 100 metres of the girls'
under-15 race and it was Gough who sensationally powered through from
third to first to snatch victory with just a second to spare over
Charlotte Purdue of the Aldershot, Farnham & District club.
"I knew I
had a fast finish. I've been working on it in training," said
Gough, who doubles up as the Hampshire Schools' junior girls' and
Hampshire County under-15 girls' 800m and 1,500m champion.
The next meeting takes
the athletes to Sefton Park, Liverpool on December 4. |

Pre-race: The winners of
the Reebok races in Falkirk and London, Natalie Grant (Rotherham Harriers)
and Rebecca Gough (Team Southampton), meet in the Under 15 Girls race.
Current rankings leader Kate Hindle (Preston Harriers) is also in the
field.

Rebecca
Gough won the the U15s race at the Reebok Cross Challenge race in
Liverpool.
This puts her one
point clear at the top of the U15 girls rankings for the series.
|
|
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.
After
the race Gough said: “The
course is quite flat and I like the hills. I wasn’t sure how I’d do
but I was pleased”.

2004
At
the Hampshire Cross-county championships Rebecca Gough struck gold in both the
individual and team events. With
Louise Webb sixth, Michelle Hallett 11th and
Megan Coakley 13th, the Gough-led Team Southampton side scooped the under-15
girls' title on a highly successful afternoon for the newly amalgamated club.
Rebecca
Gough won in a run-away victory in the combined Intermediate and Senior Girl's
race at the Hampshire schools Cross-country Championships in Alton. As just a
first year inter in such a strong county, this was a very decisive win, and
bodes well for the approaching English Schools Championships.
