Carlisle Open Medals Meeting 25th
March 2007
On a
sunny but windy day in Carlisle’s Sheepmount Stadium (pictured) 
five Blackpool Wyre and Fylde athletes came
away with eight medals between them. Starting in only her 2nd
competition in her new colours was U11Girl Katrina Kelly who was well
placed in all three of her events. She ran 60m in 10.3 (5th), 150m in 25.2
(5th) and landed with a jump of 3.06m(PB) in the long jump to finish well.
In the
U13 Girls Kassidy Knight came home with the pot of gold finishing first in all
her events with times of 14.8 in the 100m, 30.2 for the 200m (PB) and another
PB in the long jump with a distance of 4.33. The U15 Girls were lead home by
Lucy Mansfield with a gold in the 200m (28.1) and silver for the 100m (13.8).
Robyn Starkey had two good runs in the 100m and 200m with times of
14.3 and 30.2, finishing 5th in both, and with her last event of the day, Robyn
secured a silver in the javelin with a throw of 13.45m (and a big smile).
Not
wishing to be out done by her training partners, Katy Wyper finished the medal
collection of by coming 3rd in both the 200m (28.5) and a long jump (4.33m) and
only missed out in the 100m medals by 1/10 in a time of 14.2. Well done to all
the girls.
