Henry Sheffield is a national hero after coming out on top at the cross-country championships in Leicestershire.

Representing Gloucestershire, the Bussage Primary School speedster finished a convincing first,10 seconds faster than the second-placed athlete.

This result is the culmination of a remarkable unbeaten season for Sheffield. He won the under-11 Gloucestershire Cross-Country League, the u-11 County Championships and the Year 6 County Championships.
