CROSS COUNTRY ARROW PARK 5th Dec 09
Only 3 Panthers braved the mud for this 3rd race of the series. To be fair lots of abologies had been made due to prior engagements, but a big thanks to our newbee Caroline for making up the team. The mud wasn't quite as horrendous as it had been at Ashurst beacon but it was still pretty bad. WE came a very creditable 4th team having a very close race with Skem Boundary and Liverpool running club.
NEXT RACE 10th JAN

Ashurst Beacon Cross Country 22/11/09


A brilliant turn out of Panthers to this tough cross country race and it was at its muddiest, gloopiest best or should I say worst.There were times when it was impossible to stay upright (well for me anyway)and there were definitely times when my legs were doing all the actions of running but I just wasn't getting anywhere.It would be an understatement to say the conditions under foot were a little difficult.

Thankyou and well done Team Panthers Liz, Paula G, Fiona J, Sally, Clare, Joady, Caroline, Keely and Yvonne. Everyone ran their socks off including 2 very brave newbies, Caroline and Joady. I hope we haven't put you off forever I know it was a very hard race -but anything should seem easy now!

BUTTY DUTY! Thanks also from everyone for the brilliant butties made by panthers. This is very much a joint effort with Skem Boundary and they really appreciate our help with this.

Our efforts were well rewarded with a brilliant team 2nd place(out of 8 teams)

NEXT XC RACE 6th Dec 11.30 Arrow Park.more details to follow nearer the time.

We still need a team of 3 but more is always great, there was a real buzz to todays event and apart from it being a bit hilly and muddy everyone seemed really chuffed afterwards.Well done Pink Panthers only 4 more races to go.

ps watch this space for what could be some very embarrassing photos!
