Nikki Rushton and Paul Jackson were Chorley Harriers' stars in 2007 with each winning the Grand Prix titles on both road and fell.

And for Jackson, it was his second successive road title.

The Harriers staged their annual presentation evening at the Ley Inn, Clayton-le-woods, in conjunction with their Christmas Party.

Anna Maria Crabtree and Mark Ellithorn took the honours in cross country once again, while Ellithorn also won the club's performance of the year for his excellent effort at the Toronto Waterfront Marathon, when a personal best 2:52 claimed the fourth M40 prize.

Nikki Rushton won the ladies perform-ance, collecting her third award of the night for her superb run at the Winter Hill Fell Race when finishing second lady.

Nicola Raby and John Sutton were voted Most Improved Athletes over the past year, while Anna Maria Crabtree and husband Ian were deserving winners of the Committee Award for services to the club.

There was also a special mention for Lynne Clough after an excellent first year with the Harriers, and Natasha Fellowes after her epic Bob Graham Round of 42 Lakeland peaks in 22 hours.
