The image freezes a thrilling moment as two fierce competitors battle it out for victory in the senior 400m race. In an intense display of speed and determination, Ruth Cassidy from Houghton sprints ahead with unwavering focus. With every muscle engaged and her eyes fixed on the finish line, she edges past Tracy Silcox of Mandale Harriers by a mere fraction of a second. This heart-stopping climax showcases the incredible athleticism and dedication these women possessed. The event itself was a testament to the thriving athletic community within Middlesbrough during that era.
