Chipping Norton School’s Megan Humphreys was Oxfordshire’s leading performer at the English Schools’ Cross Country Championships at Witton Country Park, Blackburn.
The 17-year-old finished a highly-creditable 11th in a huge field of 300 runners in the senior girls’ race run over 4.3km.
She recorded 16mins 33secs to finish less than a minute behind Lincolnshire’s Abbie Donnelly, who took gold in 15.49.
Kingham Hill’s Emma Slevin was 78th in 17.54.
Meanwhile, Witney Roadrunners' Gareth Petts finished third in the Carterton 10k on Sunday.
He crossed the line in 35mins 19secs, ahead of teammates Dan Blake (36.39) and vet 40 Tony Lock (36.51), who were fifth and sixth respectively.
Woodstock's Sophie Carter, competing for Belgrave Harriers, was the first women home as she crossed the line seventh in 36.53.
Eynsham Road Runners' Kate Williamson retained her Vet 60 crown at the Cholsey Chase, completing the nine-mile multi-terrain course in 1hr 13mins 24secs.
