Metropolitan League: Perivale results & final league positions

as usual, it was a very muddy race at Perivale yesterday, the final race
of the Metropolitan League for 2008-9. In another solid performance, the
Serpie women’s team took 2nd place with 492 points with our highest placed
finisher being Jenny Lundgren in 4th. In the league, our women’s team
finished in 3rd place (3018 points) behind Highgate Harriers (3309) and
Woodford Green with Essex Ladies (3230).
In the men’s race, a slightly depleted team (due to holidays and other
commitments) still placed an excellent 4th with 1279 points; Hugh Torry was
the leading Serpie in 11th place. In the league, I’m pleased to say that
our result yesterday was enough for us to overhall Shaftsbury Barnet
Harriers so we finished the season in 2nd place in division 1 with 7852
points, behind Woodford Green with Essex Ladies (8686). Shaftsbury Barnet
Harriers in 3rd place having 7474 points. Our B team finished 12th in
division 1 on 3238 points and will be staying in division 1 next season.
