Ella part of winning Stockport team at Greater Manchester Schools Cross country championships!

3 of our group represented Stockport at the Greater Manchester Schools Cross Country Championships last Saturday held at an incredibly heavy Longford park. Ella came 25th out of 64 girls in the year 7 race and was part of the 4 girl Stockport team that won the team event with 42 points, just one point ahead of Oldham schools. It was a really gritty and positive run by Ella and a really well deserved reward for all the hard work she is putting into her endurance training. Congratulations Ella from the whole group!

Lauren(Yr8) ran in the Year 8/9 race and came 59th out of 83 girls and Charlotte(Yr10) ran in the Year 10/11 race and came 31st out of 54 in only her second Cross country of the season.

All three of the above results are superb efforts from multi-eventers who are training across a multitude of events and across all energy systems. Yet again, the amount of all round development that took place would have been enormous and the experience will be invaluable to these three young athletes.

Can't be more pleased with the understanding, toughness and commitment being shown. Well done Ella, Lauren & Charlotte an experience I am sure you will never forget and one to be really proud of.
