JUNIOR GREAT EDINBURGH WINTER RUN


Lewis in action
It was a big day in our capital on Saturday 9th January.  The main event was the Great Edinburgh Cross Country with international athletes from GB & NI, USA and Europe.  Team GB & NI had various Scottish based athletes in the team like Callum Hawkins & Andrew Butchart and one big British presence Mr Mo Farah!  Along side these events were junior international events and Scottish Athletics Inter-District championship - http://www.scottishathletics.org.uk/inter-district-action-from-holyrood/
 
With international and local championships going there was also events for adults and kids to take part in.  Our own Calderglen Harrier rising junior star was young Lewis Moir who ran the Junior Great Edinburgh Winter Run.  It was 2.5K and he ran 11min 29sec. He came 35th out of 112 boys in his age group and his time was 1min 21 sec faster than last year so he was happy with his run. http://www.greatrun.org/great-winter-run/junior-great-winter-run
 
Well done Lewis and thanks to Mum Lynsey for letting me know and the picture.
