Competing as an Intermediate (Years 10 and 11), Sally, who runs with Wakefield Harriers, won the 1500m with a terrfifc sprint from 300m out which took her seven seconds clear of the next Intermediate athlete.
Sally is now hoping to be selected to represent West Yorkshire Schools at the English Schools Championships at Don Valley Stadium, Sheffield on July 10 and 11.
