Time: 07:25
On the win:
“Incredible. I’m very shocked and surprised and I am happy with the win. I’m glad I had all my family members watching as well. I did the Mini before and came fourth, that gave me motivation to come back and win it so I am very happy.”
U17 Women’s wheelchair winner (T53/54): Niamh Currie (Scotland)
Time: 09:59
On the win:
“It’s great, when I crossed the Finish Line I was looking up at the time to see if I could get a PB and I managed to get that PB. It feels great, I have never been happier.
On training:
“I have been training for months to get to this and have been doing 5Ks to learn how to pace myself. I managed to keep up with the boys for a while because we started at the same time. I was very close to beating one but just missed out. This is my fourth time at the Mini, first as an under-17. I am going to celebrate with pizza.”
U17 Men’s winner: Thomas Webb (Well City Harriers, South West)
Time: 07:19
On the race:
“It went off the gun fast. There was a bit of pushing and shoving, so I was glad to get out of that quite early, then it settled in, and I found a bit of a rhythm.”
“As we went round the final hairpin, it picked up. Me and two others managed to get a bit of a gap, and it was a bone up to the line, and just I managed to pip the other lads.”
On the win:
“It’s just amazing! I’m really chuffed. I've had a good season last year and it seems like it's only going up still, so I am really pleased.”
“I did it two years ago and got fourth so I was disappointed, but now we have a win! It’s a really good event.”
U17 Women’s winner: Isla Mcgowan (Banbury Club, South East)
Time: 08:19
“I’m so happy! I just came here to try my best. I won this two years ago and it was really close, so I’m happy as I’ve won it again with a fast finish.”
On training:
“I’ve only had one bad injury which made me a lot stronger. It made me have a stronger come back.”
On running:
“I just love this sport. I’ve made so many friends through it, it’s just amazing!”
U15 Boys’ winner: Freddie Gibson (Medway and Maidstone Athletics Club, South East)
Time: 07:36
“It was brilliant to win that. Coming down the final bit was horrible; every part of your legs is hurting and when I had someone so close to be the whole time it made it even harder. I am so happy I won it, hopefully more to come. I am really happy to be here.”
U15 Girls’ winner: Poppy Guest (Aldershot, Farnham and District Athletic Club, South East)
Time: 08:13
On the win:
“I really wasn’t expecting it but I am thrilled with it, it is my favourite race of the year. There is so much hype around it and it really is the one. I really like road and it felt like it went so fast.
“This is my third time at the Mini. Last year I came third, then the year before I think I was 27th. I moved club after my first year and I am with Mick Woods now and he is a really good coach; he is always thinking about what the best training sessions are and he gives us race plans.
On the race plan:
“The plan was to just get out and get going and get into a good rhythm and if I fee like I’ve got enough energy to go I need to make a move and a decisive move when I do. I really want to celebrate with my family and the amazing hype of London.”
U13 Boys’ winner: Thomas Hastings (Wakefield District Harriers, Yorkshire and Humberside)
Time: 08:16
“I wasn’t expecting it at all, I didn’t do very well last year so I have just been training and training and finally I’ve got my reward. This week I really had tightness in my calves so I am really relieved, to be able to do this is amazing. Probably one of my best races I have ever done. Just going to have a meal and celebrate with my family and enjoy the feeling of it and waking up tomorrow with a smile on my face knowing I have won and all my work has been put in a good place.”
U13 Girls’ winner: Jessica Thake (Hallamshire Harriers, Yorkshire and Humberside)
Time: 08:42
“It was very hard and very fast, there is not one hill so it just keeps going, keeps speeding up and up. I wanted to go off with the people at the front and when I got to Buckingham Palace to see how I felt, and if I could get away there. I was 8th last year. This past year I have been picking up my training quite a bit.”
