Cross Country at Trent Park was to the fore this week, where Peter Gould finished first Chingford League runner ( taking 2nd in the Fraternity Cup ), while the Men’s and Women’s teams took 1st and 2nd places respectively in the Div 2 team competition ; there was also the 3rd NWLL meeting of the season for our junior athletes, featuring individual wins for Lettice Gundry and Dylan Mills
Rebecca Piggott was first senior woman over the finish line at Horsenden Hill Met League and Charlie Nicolson was the first Junior male. Excellent results too at Fulham and Brighton 10K
This was a fine week for our cross-country runners, both junior and senior. At the London Cross-Country Championships at Hampstead Heath our men’s team (headed by Seyfu Jamaal, who took first place) won the event and our women’s team (headed by Rebecca Piggott, who took seventh place) came fourth. At the London Youth Games, also at Hampstead, U15 Charlie Nicolson took the silver medal and led the Haringey boys to a silver team medal.
