Good venue with the Sports Centre facilities right on hand and food available afterwards. It's a decent cross country course with mixed terrain and a leap across water (twice). A longish climb across a ploughed muddy field managed to drain energy and those without studded shoes (Charlie excepted) would have found it even more difficult.
What's always good at the end of one of these runs is that no matter what the conditions or course, everyone enjoys it. Those who haven't done one yet - make diary space for the last in the series on 6th March.

Once again , Karen Ball and  Victoria Burrows-Bilton were right up there amongst the leaders and once again finishing positions were reversed with Victoria in 3rd spot and Karen in 5th. Excellent support from our other ladies enabled the team to finish 3rd (up 2 from last time) and climb back to 3rd spot in the league, albeit on countback. Well done to Maria McDonald-Leach who continued her improvement with her best score in the series. A good turnout in the last race by our ladies could see us clinch 3rd spot in the top league, a brilliant result after last year's promotion.

We finished in 7th spot in this combined league of 17 teams but remain firmly in 3rd spot overall having had the last race results amended due to having Jenni Dews put into the vets category (sorry Jenni, but when ladies reach 35 they become vets).
