Team Crackley Run Well At The ISA Midlands Cross Country
24 Jan
On Wednesday 22 January, we took a team of Crackley’s fleetest cross-country runners to the ISA Midlands Qualifier at Bedstone College.
The course at Bedstone is notoriously challenging, taking plenty of determination to complete. It involves mud and stream crossings, along with other varied terrain that challenges the balance and stamina of the competitors. For many of the children, it was their first real exposure to any type of cross-country running.
Facing fields of 150-180 runners, our Junior 4, Junior 5 and Junior 6 pupils threw their hearts into their races, demonstrating tenacity and perseverance to complete the course. We are still waiting for the final placings to be confirmed but so far we have four pupils who have qualified for the ISA Nationals.
Congratulations to J4 Otto, J5 Harry, J6 Scarlett and J6 Leo.
As always, Crackley’s children were exceptionally well-behaved and a real credit to the school. A huge well done to everyone.
