In the middle distance races Freya got a pb in the under 15 race and great to see 5 girls represent us in the under 15 800m today. Well done to Emma, Amelia, Lauren and Maria . All have proper times to work on now .
Disappointing to see only one of our under 16 athletes race today but well done to Daire who ran well in a very competitive under 16 boys race.
