James Bolton and Sophie Carter were Oxfordshire’s leading performers at the Bourton 10K.

Woodstock Harriers’ Bolton finished seventh and retained the vet 40 men’s title he won last year.

Carter, who lives in Wood-stock, but now runs for Belgrave Harriers, was third senior lady after finishing 67th.

Strong winds meant times were slower than expected on what is usually a fast course.

Bolton backed up his vet 40 success of a week ago at the Bramley 20, crossing the line in 33mins 18secs.

Carter clocked 38.10, while Eynsham’s Mark Tyrell (34.29) and Witney’s James Currah (35.27) also impressed.

Problems with marshalling meant several runners crossed the finish line on their penultimate lap of the village and were listed incorrectly in the results.

The Witney Gazette have decided to report the times as they appear on the race website unless otherwise directed.

Kate Williamson showed she is still a force to be reckoned with at the Cholsey Chase.

The 68-year-old Eynsham Road Runner took the vet 60 ladies’ honours in the nine-mile multi-terrain race.

Williamson, who is consistently in Britain’s top five for her age group, completed the course in 1hr 20mins 30secs to finish 68th overall.

Her Eynsham clubmate Katherine Bates was the first vet 50 lady home in 1.18.36, while Derek Breaker (1.18.14) took the third vet 60 men’s prize.

l Witney Road Runners’ Josh Rhodes and Jessica Barker secured victories for Oxfordshire in the south east regional sportshall finals at Burgess Hill.

Rhodes triumphed in the under 15 boys’ speed bounce with 90 bounces in 30 seconds.

Barker took the under 13 girls’ vertical Jump with a leap of 67cm.

She later won the eight-lap paarlauf with Banbury Harr-iers’ Emily Thompson.
