Juvenile Cross Country
Juvenile county cross country uneven ages 2021
On Sunday October 10th we hosted the county juvenile uneven ages, intermediate and senior cross country championships in the demesne, Newcastle west. Sunday was a beautiful warm autumns day and the conditions were perfect for cross country running. The course was mainly flat except for one small hill and the running surface was fantastic apart from a few bumps along the way. The juveniles once again did the club very proud by put on amazing performances and cheering each other on. We also had lots of smiling faces both before and after the races which was great to see! It was a memorable and fantastic day out.
