A small and late mention that on Sunday 18th January was the 2nd East Kilbride Athletics Club Open Cross Country event. As last year the course was at O'Cathian Farm in Jackton. Unfortunately due to the wintry weather there was a lower turnout however Calderglen Harriers had junior and senior athletes out competing.
The 3 junior athletes out this year were Lewis Moir, Lucy Bennett and Cameron Green. First race up was the under 11s, girls and boys, who both ran a 1k distance. Lucy was the only girl Harrier taking part in the field of 24 runners crossing the line in 4:33 and this was after the night before she was performing in her dance show. So well done Lucy.
Next up in a field of 30 runners was the under 11 boys with Cameron Green being the first Harrier home in 3:44 in 14th place followed by Lewis Moir who is not officially quite in the under 11 age group did a respectable 3:56 in 23rd place.
So well done to all 3 athletes that took on this challenge and I am glad to see young Harriers out competing its all part of training to be better runners.
