The second of the Junior Summer Championship races took place on Thursday 23rd of September 2021 on the pavements around Gynn Lane and Station Road.
There was again a very good turn out with 70 different young athletes taking part in the two races. This led to some excellent competitive races with many of the athletes showing grit and determination as they sprinted the final uphill 20m with every second vital in determining the handicap results.
No athlete was able to complete the ‘double’ in any of the age groups with 10 different winners on handicap and 24 different medallists in the five age groups with some new young talent emerging.
Well done to all those who took part and as the results show everyone has a chance and hopefully more will have a go in the winter series with the first race on Saturday18th of December 2021 at Brooklands Nursery, Scholes with a start time of 10:30am.
Again a big thanks to the numerous parents, grandparents and others who assisted bymarshalling and result recording to ensure the event was a success.
Results of both the 2nd race, and the overall positions, are in the Results Section (within Events tab).
