Muddy Success at Lancing

MATCH AT LANCING COLLEGE vs Brighton Coll, Charterhouse, Harrow, Lancing, Ardingly, Sevenoaks

Well it was very muddy, pretty cold and somewhat wet but the JFS runners all overcame the odds on Saturday to run impressive times on what is a quintessential cross-country course.

The U16 course started in the very muddy field - see photo below, before a huge hill. This then leads to a rather enjoyable downhill sprint on paths and chalky tracks until a final uphill slog to the finish line. 

The results are below. Well done to Freddy, Peter, Malachi and Ebuka, our first 4 finishers and thus the A Team as they won the competition by just one place! Well done the Year 8s Ebuka, Matt and Jhon who all ran well together. Paul Hewitt improved his 2016 time massively, and for the first-timers there is something to beat next time.

The Senior course is a real challenge. A long distance with 3 hills and run on uneven tracks. Well done to all who ran, especially Ryan after his late night (and Mr Galvin). Harry showed some ominous form once again. The miles will stand them all in good stead for challenges to come!
