Walton athletes competing in this year’s championship had a good weekend
winning 5 gold medals, 3 silver and 2 bronze.
Carla Letheby won
the bronze medal in the senior women’s shot.
In the under 20 women’s age
group Sinead O’Bien won the gold medal in shot. Sister Lisa did the double
winning the high jump and triple jump. Lisa also won the silver medal in the
60m hurdles and the bronze medal in the long jump.
Sophie Mace competing in
the under 15 and under 17 shot also did the double winning both events. The
under 17 result was impressive as Sophie threw a pb to take the title from
the winner of last year’s under 15 champion. Even more impressive was the
under 15 result where Sophie set a new championship record.
In the under
15 boy’s age group Sawa Yamakawa won silver medals in the long jump and 60m
hurdles.

Well done to all our athletes.
