UK Athletics Cross Challenge (Incorporating the UK Trials for the GB team for the European XC Championships) Sefton Park 24th November
This fixture always attracts the top athletes in the UK, but particularly so when the event is being used as the selection race for the GB team athletes at Junior and senior level.
Rotherham Harriers had 16 athletes competing. Again it was in the senior women's and U13 girls races where the numbers were largest, but all the club athletes ran well against top level competition.
Olivia Bell had a good run to finish the first of the club's athletes in 12th, but all the athletes ran really well, with the girls giving an early indcation that they could well be in contention for team medals when the Northern Champs are held at Pontefract in January 2019 - since five of our 7 athletes were in the top 20 Northern finishers.Josh Wragg and Sam Gilson, fresh from their 1st & 2nd positions in last weeks SY league event, both had good runs with Josh 6th Northern finisher.
Cyane Robinson had a good run to finish 24th, but more significantly 3rd Northern athlete; which stands her in good stead for consideration for Northern team selection during this season.
The senior Women's race positions went according to recent form with the club finishing order being pretty much in line with earlier relay times and positions. Again our first 5 athletes were inside the top 30 Northern positions.
Another good day for the club with some encouraging results and great performances!
