Cross Country season starts

Three Counties Running Club Members couldn’t wait for the cross-country season to start and what better way than at Shouldham?

The series hosted by Ryston Runners takes place in the woods at Shouldham. There are six races in the series: two at 5k, two at 6.5k and two at 9k.

There are age category results in every race and if runners complete three of the series with each being a different distance they get a special race momento.

It was a lovely day for the first event, with a distance of 5k.

First home for the club was Phil Newton 23:22, Vicki Newton 23:23 2nd in age, Lauren Day 23:44CPB 3rd in age, Sarah Melton-Whitelam 24:56, Claire Smithee 25:57CPB 2nd in age, Naomi Smith 26:01CPB, Sarah Johnson 26:46, Lorraine Parker 27:04, Steve Whitelam 28:33 and Sarah Lamb 35:40.
