Its takes a while for all the above to sink in, what a result. Well done to everyone. A big thank you to our super walks coaches Abbey and Sara Jane. Thank you to Hilary for all the co-ordinating and rounding up of the non club members to help make up our relay teams. Well done to those who were ‘ just stuck into events’ some for the first time, you wern’t afraid of the challenge. And lastly thanks to the parents who supported all the children. Great weekend.
