Frank Tickner finished 6^th in the final match of the 5 match national McCain Cross country Challenge at Birmingham on Sunday and as a consequence did enough to win the Series from fellow international Dean Lacey. Frank was competing as part of the Avon & Somerset team with Harrier team members competing across all of the age groups. Frank will have gained a considerable cash prize as a result of his consistency across the Series. Well done! Harriers were also out competing at the Bath Half, the Grizzly and the Butleigh multi-terrain races

There was an excellent turn out, great individual running and some brilliant team performances by the 45 Harriers that competed at the 5th and final Gwent cross country League match at Blaise Castle in Bristol on Saturday March 3rd. Individual headlines on the day were made by Isobel Glaisher, 1st in the u15 girls race, Sam Somerville, 2nd in the u15 boys race and Matthew Dickinson 3rd in the u17/u20s race (& first u17 athlete home). but in truth we had a host of other great performances with a number of  top ten finishers in the various races, and it was also great to see some Harriers competing for the first time in the League.
