Seniors All Impress at St.Albans

Like travelling to an away fixture at Old Trafford or the Etihad, the St.Albans Relay takes place at the home of one of the country's top Cross-Country schools, if not the top.

This is always a very challenging fixture with some excellent opposition and a course that can be very wet and muddy. With 6-man teams and a 2-mile leg each everyone aimed to improve on their previous years time and see where we ended.

The long drive to St.Albans around the M25 was uneventful with Miss Tomes and Francis in the minibus and Mr Fell in his car due to a late evening appointment.

TEAM RESULT 

A TEAM 6^th & B TEAM 14^th in a very high quality race which included teams that always perform exceptionally well in the National Relay. A real gutsy performance from the squad improving their 2015 times

 

 

Unfortunately the drive home was, as usual, a nightmare, and the minibus arrived back at JFS HQ at 7.15 after a 3 hour journey!

Well done to all runners!
