Midlands Cross Country Championships - Saturday 28th January 2012

A terrific bronze medal for Charlie Davis in the Under 15 boys race - with a brilliant gold for our 2nd claim member Ellis Cross, who is first claim Tamworth. Well done lads. Also our under 20 women came back from Wollaton Park with a team bronze - congratulations Faye Barr, Emma Fulcher, Cara Davison. And our 'old boy' James Walsh won the senior men's race - a mere 26 seconds clear of silver medallist Rory Fraser (Owls) with Josh Lilly (Tipton) another 24 seconds back in third. Top ten place as well for Megan McDonald.
