National Cross Country Relay Championships
The National Cross Country Relays were held at Cumbernauld on Saturday 26 October. It was a beautiful autumn day but freezing cold!
In a repeat of last year’s result there was Silver medal success for our Senior men’s team which this year was represented by Cameron Wright, Andrew MacAngus, Callum Hawkins and Connor MacLean. Spectators and athletes were delighted to see Callum wearing his club vest and racing so soon after his superb fourth place in the World Championship Marathon in Doha.
Our Masters Womens team of Sharon Hastie, Joanne McDowall and Caroline Cochran were thrilled to also bring home silver medals.
In the Young Females A team there was strong running from Adele Street, Abbie Alemu, and Aurelia Tiffoney to finish in 10th position. The Young Males A team of Oliver Patton, Luke Lindsay and Jack Patton also ran well amid stiff competition.
The Women’s race started during the only rain shower of the day. Our young team of Laine Alemu, Kerry MacAngus, Libby Sutherland and Eilidh Gibson performed well to come home in 15th position.
