Birmingham and District XC League Div 1 – 1 Dec

An 18 strong team travelled to Cofton Park and put in a battling performance in the 2nd league race of the season.  On a hilly six mile course including over 600 feet of ascent our athletes ran excellently with many runners improving their positions from the 1st race.

Ollie Haradence led the 1st team home with a superb 33rd place finish.   The other A team scorers were Nick Corker (37), Dave Long (108), Steve Marklew (118), Paul Terleski (121) and Russell Simpson (138).  Overall the team finished 14th.

The B team finished in 10th place in the B race with the scorers being Simon Corker (142), Chris Taylor (144), Vikram Balachandar (165), Paul Davey (171), John Fletcher (202), and Dave Bowen (210).  Our other runners were Simon Ralph (213), Subudh Dave (214), Matthew Stenson (216), Paul Jenkins (222), Richard Lewis (225) and Matthew Lumley (228).

The result leaves us in the relegation zone but with plenty to fight for in the last two races.  Well done to everyone who ran!

Midland Women’s League – 1 December

The senior women’s team ran superbly in their second league fixture at Burbage Common, Hinckley.  On a “horrendous” course with two long laps of thick mud our young team put in a great performance, with all runners improving on their placings in the 1st match.

Megan McBrien led the team home in 9th place (10 places higher than the last race), Becky Robinson was 28th (10 place improvement), Andrea Deathridge was 33rd in her first race of the season, Miranda Stoddart was 57th (13 places higher than last) and Rachel Smith was 60th (13 places higher).  The team results have not yet been published but we should be well placed.

The next league race (12 January) is at Sandwell Valley at the same venue as the men.  It would be great to get a good turnout at this fixture with all runners welcome.  If anyone would like to run please speak to Margaret Riley.
