15 Juniors took part in the 1st cross-country of the winter season yesterday at Warren Hill Eastbourne. A particularly hard course for a first attempt for our youngsters with a gruelling up hill section to the finish. They all performed admirably over the 1.5 mile (approx) course. Results were:
Mark Griffin 13:32 (2nd AG) Ferdi Ibrahim 13:56 (1st AG) Sam Gillam 14:10 (2nd AG) Zachary Bray 14:13 (3rd AG) Brooker 14:22 (2nd AG) Hope Sankey 14:25 (3rd AG) Lucy Boreham 14:40 (3rd AG) Louisa Bowes 14:43 (1st AG) Hannah Frais 15:10 (5th AG) Dan Mitchell 15:37 (4th AG) Lucas Heynes 15:44 (5th AG) Michaela Croft 15:53 (6th AG) Elliott Heynes 17:14 (4th AG) Rafft Stanger 17:33 (1st AG) Amy McWilliams 19:05 (5th AG)
Cross country running is very different from road running and it helps greatly in strengthening the legs and improves all round performance. Coach Andy will be working with the juniors throughout the winter season with some off road sessions. Other junior races can be found here.
Some great photos showing just how hard our Juniors work can be found here.
