Serpie women 10th at Clumber Park

Runner in Hyde Park

For the first time ever we had four teams racing at the nationals, which is a reflection of the strength of our women’s squad under the leadership of captain Vic Crawford.

Andrea Clement led the A team off to a great start by winning the first leg, and recording the 5th fastest time of the day (11:29) over the 4k course. Sarah Pemberton, Vic Crawford and Becky Glover were runners 2, 3 and 4, and the team finished in 10th overall.

The B team of Helen Winsor, Genevieve Bourke, Helen Ward and Rebekah MacKay finished in 19th, closely followed by our C team of Amy Cope, Sam Ludlow Taylor, Ilona Bagi and Grace Kimble in 25th. The D team (we were the only club with a D team) of Grace Wu, Caroline Ringrow, Mary Egundebi and Steph Vaatz, finished 37th.

I’d like to thank coach Andy Robbins for sorting out the travel arrangements and for supporting on the day.
