A big thankyou to the club members who took part in the X/C today. We managed to field 7 men & 7 women and as usual those present gave it their all so well done everyone the men were led home by Geoff & the women by Roz. A big thank you also to the men who were able to stay back & offer support to the womens team together with female non running members Wendy, Louise & Amanda having people cheer you on in these events really does help.
The weather conditions were good for running but I have to say I was disappointed with the lack of mud. Will I ever get to use my Harrier League Survival Kit? Perhaps there will be more mud on offer next week at Farringdon. As this event is close to home it would be great if we could have double numbers in both the mens & womens race. The Sea of Purple this season has been smaller than usual for a variety of reason but why not turn the tide. There is always great team spirit at these events and those turning up are finding it hard to clear the tasty nibbles provided by Elvet Eats so the more the merrier at the next event.
