Inter-Counties Cross Country
UK CAU Inter-Counties Cross Country Championships, Wollaton Park, 9.3.24
Despite the heavy rain of the previous weeks and closed car parks as a result the annual inter-counties took place at Wollaton Park in Nottingham. The weather was mild and sunny and the courses generally held up well however a stiff breeze ensured there was an extra challenge.
The best Middlesex team result was the U13 Girls who finished 5th with a solid team performance. The U15 Girls almost matched that with 6th anchored by our best individual performance of the day Jorjia March (Barnet) who was 5th. The U20 Women also were 6th anchored by Lauren Russell’s (Highgate) 6th place. The Senior Women were 10th as were the U15 Boys. Dylan Evans (Highgate) was our first Senior Man home in 15th with the team securing 11th place overall. The U13 Boys were 12th, U17 Men 13th and U17 Women 15th.
Further notable individual performances were Thomas Chadwick (Highgate) 7th in U17 Men, Aiden Wolpert (VPH&TH) 16th in U13 Boys and Tom Mythan (SMR) 19th in the U15 Boys.
Thank you to all the athletes, team managers and other supporters who helped ensure our teams performed so well.
