English Cross Country Relays

For the first time in the club's history we sent teams to the National XC relays in Mansfield. Our women came 21st and 72nd, and our men came 35th and 80th.

The first English Cross Country Relays took place in 1985 but this is the first year that we have sent teams. There are races in every age group, with the senior women racing 3x3k and the senior men 4x5k. Entries are restricted to three teams per race per club although we only sent two of each this year.
