The 15 year old was competing in the first of the Midland Area Race Walking Association - Winter League League Series 2020.
The challenging 855 metre cycle routs at Stourport-on-Severn was undulating with climbs and numerous bends.
However despite this Abby, who was by far the youngest competitor, won easily in a time of 26 minutes 55 seconds two minutes ahead of her nearest rivals.
Afterwards the youngster who attends King's College in Taunton said: " It was a hard 5k race on a challenging course. Two races in eight days meant that my legs weren't 100% but I kept pushing and maintained first place throughout."
