Athletes from Peterborough and Nene Valley AC accumulated a large hoard of medals at the Lincolnshire County Athletics Championships.
There was a double gold for Louie Hemmings, who collected both the under-13 800m and 1,500m titles – running a speedy 4.58mins for his triumph in the latter.
Likewise, Sienna Slater picked up under-15’s 100m gold with a time of 13.54secs, then went on to win the 75m hurdles – as well as picking up shot put silver.
Two medals went the way of Dave Bush, who won the senior men’s shot put title as well as claiming a strong silver in the javelin.
Also in the shot, Donovan Capes threw 14.12m for the under-20 title, while younger brother Lawson Capes won under-15 gold with a great 14.27m throw.
