Amie Richardson and Neil Finegan rose to fame in Bangor.
The West Cheshire Athletic Club duo played on a test course from Treborth to Bangor in the second round of the North Wales Cross Country League.
Richardson won the men’s under-17 race in 20 minutes and 8 seconds, and was assisted by third-place Henry Robinson in 22:55.
Finegan celebrated success in his age group of men over 45 after finishing 22nd overall in the men’s race with a time of 32:44, ahead of his club teammates Fraser Campbell (second man under 20 in 33:10), Dave Alexander (third male over 50 in 34:36), Paul Morrison (fifth male under 20 in 34:58), Andrew Clague (fifth male over 50 in 35:52) and James Robinson (23rd senior man in 36:29).
