York Acorn Running Club runners are on target to win almost all the male veteran categories in the Cleveland Fell Running League.
They are poised to win the over-45, O50, O55 and O60 categories in a series comprising 11 races with each runner’s best six results counting towards the final placings.
In the O45s, Acorn’s Ian Smallwood cannot be beaten after winning three races, while the O50s’ category has been dominated by Andy Normandale who won all seven races he competed in. He may even finish fourth overall in the League.
Acorn club-mates Phil Paxman and Steve Mummery dominate the 055s. Paxman, with five wins, holds a narrow lead over Mummery (two wins).
In the 060s class, leader Mike Hetherton can be overtaken by Scarborough’s Neil Scruton.
The final race in the series is at Castleton tomorrow.
