There was some great running by the Harrier squad at the SW XC Championships on Sunday Jan 5th. For both the experienced and the first timers the course offered at Killerton Park was challenging to say the least due to the combination of hills and mud. The full results are available on the event specific website at http://www.sw-athletics-academy.co.uk/sw-championships/

Whilst some Harriers might be taking a well earned break over the holiday period a number of others have stepped up their training and some have been out racing as much as ever. Oliver Fox well and truly smashed his road 10k time when he ran 32.12 to finish first junior and 2nd overall at the Stoke St Gregory 10k race on the 29th December whilst Jon James covered the 4 mile circuit at Clevedon on Boxing day with 21.16 being good enough for 10th place, 2nd V40.

32 Harriers took part at the pre-Xmas parlauf event at Millfield track on Tuesday evening under the watchful eye of Clive Thomas. With runners aged between 10 and 61 and paired up as fairly as possible by Clive based on current pace, there was fierce competition to see how far each pair could run in relay for the full 30 minutes of the session. After the effort, prizes and awards were made in the local pub. Read on for results and report.
