HELEN Glover marked her switch to Ribble Valley Harriers by winning the Ilkley Moor Fell Race last Sunday.

Her new clubmate Louisa Powell-Smith was second in 47:57, and leading women's under-23 Bronwen Jenkinson, of Eryri Harriers, was third in 48.00.

Ilkley Harrier Tom Adams won the men's race in 37:16, almost four minutes clear of runner-up Ted Mason, of Silsden-based Wharfedale Harriers. Clubmate Sam Watson was fourth.
