SCHOOLS from across Teesdale fielded more than 100 children for the 11th primary schools cross country event.
Barnard Castle Preparatory School welcomed athletes from ten schools when it held its annual 2km race.
The host school defended the team title it won last year by taking the trophy once again.
Barnard Castle school teacher Alan Dougherty said: "We started off with five or six schools 11 years ago and the competition has grown to about a dozen now. "
Headteacher Ted Haslam said: "We all really look forward to this event each year. The effort the children put in is amazing and we are delighted to welcome so many from schools across Teesdale."
