Greater Manchester Primary Schools Cross Country Championships 2015

Very proud of Sofia (22nd), Ella(29th) and Jonah(90th) who represented Stockport schools today in the Greater Manchester Schools XC Championships. These are excellent results by multi-eventers. The individual shields they received are well deserved after a season when they have worked extremely hard both in training and in their races. As with other members of our group, what I am most proud of is that these very young athletes don't make an issue about training or competing. They see it as one and the same thing and get on with it as if they are 23 year old experienced athletes. From a very young age they are listening well and learning lots and doing things for all the right long term reasons.

Congratulations also to Ella for winning a local schools XC race on Thursday.
