Full results can be found on the 2010 fixtures & results page.

For the first time in several weeks, Newark AC’s athletes were able to return to the more familiar surface of grass and mud and were keen to get racing after the postponements of the previous weekend. The Wollaton Park course was in good condition despite the snow thawing and some heavy rain before the racing got underway and proved a fine setting for the North Midlands league finale. Rachel McCuaig had already won the veteran 40 title with a race to spare, but completed the series in style by taking maximum points. Despite missing one race with injury, Kate Else finished third in the veteran 45 age group. The best finish of the day, however, was 11th in the under 13 girls’ by Charlotte Peach, who continues to improve with every race. Doug Kelley also impressed with his highest finish of the season in fourteenth in the senior men’s event.
