Louie Hemmings comfortably won the Lincolnshire under 13 boys title while Lewis Legge took a hard fought gold in the same age group in Cambridgeshire.

In addition to Hemmings' win in Lincolnshire, there were individual golds in both under 20's races with Harry Hewitt winning the mens by a margin of over three minutes, and Hannah Knight taking the ladies title.
