Wednesday 30th June 2004:
Two Lincoln Wellington athletes will
shortly be in action in international competition. Blue Haywood
recently won the Black Forest Trial - a fell race on Ilkley
Moor over 2500 metres and with a climb of 220 metres - and, as a
result, she has been selected to make her international debut for the
England team in the Black Forest Teenager Games in Germany on
10th-11th July.
Rachael Nathan already has several Great
Britain vests against her name but after a four month layoff during
the winter she has only recently resumed serious training. Second
place in the 3000 metres steeplechase on her debut in the event at
the AAA's under 20 championships last week was obviously sufficient
to convince the selectors that she is on her way back. And as a
result she will represent Great Britain under 20's in a match
against Australia and other selected international competition at
the Sport City Stadium in Manchester on 3rd July.
Three Lincoln Wellington athletes will
have the honour of representing Lincolnshire Schools at this years
English Schools track and field Championships at Gateshead
International Stadium on July 9th and 10th. Lydia Chamberlin will
run the intermediate girls 200 metres and will also be part of the
4x100m relay team. Last years English Schools junior boys 400m
champion Tom Duffield moves up to the intermediate age group in
the same event. And dual gold medal winner in the intermediate girls
3000m, Rachael Nathan, will contest the same event in the senior
girls age group on her final appearance in a schools competition.

Saturday 1st May 2004: Lincoln
Wellington's athletes enjoyed a successful start to their North of
England league season at Hull today. The mens team recorded 1st
place and the women 3rd place to give an overall 2nd place. This
is a very respectable start considering that the squad had a number of
regulars missing. Personal bests were recorded by Will
Strangeway in the 1500m, Rachel Townsend in the 100m hurdles, Amy
Orrow in the discus and Ian
Kimpton in the 5000m.
Friday 30th April 2004: Lincoln
Wellington 15-year-old Tom Duffield is the latest athlete from the
club to gain international status. He has recently been notified of
his selection to represent England Schools in an intermediate age
group European Schools competition in Milan at the end of May.
Tom will be competing in the 400 metres, at which he is the
reigning English Schools junior boys champion, and he also expects to
be part of the sprint relay team. Following on from last years
tremendous results which saw him take the AAA's title in his age and
top the National rankings at 400m, Tom has already proved his current
fitness with a 200m/400m double at the first Lincolnshire League meeting
of the season. In the former event he recorded a very
satisfactory personal best time of 23.4 seconds. His main target for
the season will be to break the 50 second barrier for 400m and,
with a seasonal debut time of 51.0 seconds which already
qualifies him for this years English Schools Championships, his target
should be achievable.
Monday 26th April 2004: Provisional
results from yesterday's 2nd Lincs League match at Grantham are
now available on the Boston and District website.
Monday 26th April 2004:
