A successful Cirencester XC!

A huge thanks to Paul Jegou, Gareth, Dick, Martin, Nick and all the Harriers & Didcot Runners who volunteered to make Cirencester one of the best fixtures in the Oxfordshire XC League.

We had a strong turn out, with 16 juniors and 26 seniors competing.  It was lovely to have debut runs from Anthi and Rebecca Brown. 

Results

Congratulations to all the Harriers who competed amongst the best cross-country runners in the Oxfordshire.  It was great to see the such a cheerful and sporting attitude exhibited on a challenging , muddy course.

Impressive to see the ladies ‘A’ team (Sophie Lloyd, Becky Hodgson and Lucy Rycroft) finishing 1st overall, and our ‘B’ team (Lisa O’Neill, Anna Kelly and Kerry Wilkinson) finishing 3rd in Division 2

WHH Standings – Season to Date

  • Women – 1st Division 1
  • Men – 8th Division 1

The Women’s success has been built on a great camaraderie and impressive turnout. They’ll be looking to maintain the great team spirit and encourage all the ladies to come and run an XC.

Thanks to a stronger turnout from the men delivered a better result, moving us up to 7th place. Looking forward to getting loads of Harriers out for Adderbury on the 5th Jan.
