AIRE places 5th in CompassSport Cup Final
Thanks to everybody who represented AIRE in the final at Tankersley, Hesley and Parkin Woods on Sunday. We had a really good turnout of 59 runners on the day with representation across all the age classes from the 12s to the 80s. The team gamely tackled courses in the wooded post-industrial landscape; some with great aplomb, some with exasperation in places (more the latter for me!).
In a field of 10 very competitive clubs we finished 5th, just 4 points off 4th position. Full results are:
SYO | South Yorkshire | 2397 |
FVO | Forth Valley | 2368 |
WCOC | West Cumberland | 2245 |
OD | Octavian Droobers (Coventry) | 2183 |
AIRE | You know who | 2179 |
SLOW | South London | 2100 |
DVO | Derwent Valley | 2049 |
LEI | Leicester | 1549 |
BOK | Bristol | 1460 |
ESOC | Edinburgh Southern | 825 |
Plumpton Rocks, Juniors Rock!
There were great results for girls at Plumpton Rocks near Knaresborough this weekend. Emily W16 - 2nd on Green, Megan W14 - 5th on Light green and Kate - 7th on yellow. AIRE club coaches ran pretty well too David Alcock 4th on Mens Blue and Lindsey King 10th on Womens Blue. Well done all!
Looking forward to seeing lots of AIRE juniors at Tankersley Barnsley next weekend for the final of Compass Sport Cup.
