There was a good turn out of 44 runners despite the murky weather. The 6 and 7 year old set off first and the Gina Nuttall fought it out with Ted Bolton, Gina just pulled ahead of Ted to take first place, with Ted as first boy. The rest of the competitors started off together. Tomas Williams won the 8-9 category with Ellen Mary Kearney coming first girl. Sion James stormed home in the 10-11 year olds nearly catching up with the 8-9 year olds. Sarah Hill was first girl in this category. Ieuan Kearney and Aileen Kearney continued the family’s winning streak coming first boy in the 12-13 year olds and first girl in the 14-15 year olds respectively. Martha Owen and Liam Burthem both ran well, coming first 12-13 year old girl and first boy in the 14 -15 year old categories respectively and catching many of the younger runners.
The routes was very muddy and despite warnings to tie shoe laces tightly, a shoe had to be rescued from the mud!
Many thanks to all the marshalls.
