Nice one!

Cov Godiva stayed up in the top league of the cross country on saturday, by the skin of our teeth, in a "great escape" that would make the Sky Blues blush. Four teams battling to avoid two remaining relegation places..... we ended up in the final relegation place, but then league "giants" Loughborough Uni very kindly couldn't muster a full team for the fixture and took our relegation spot.

Kenilworth promoted from Div3 up to Div2. Sphinx and Northbrook were also fighting for promotion but didn't quite make it.

Awaiting confirmed results for Div2 but i think Nuneaton have been relegated.


5 x 1km reps last night.

National Cross Country Champs at Parliament Hill a week on saturday, will conclude the winter racing season..... then a couple of fell races, Podium 5km, and the Midlands & National Road Relays.

Nice. I must have a look see if there's Amy similar competitions down this way that my club could enter.

Your local county (Devon?) Athletics Association will be able to let you know which competitions your club are eligible for....

I'd imagine there's a county/area cross country league...... and if your club is affiliated to England/Uk Athletics, should be eligible for county/regional cross country champs, and area road relays, etc

Its a thankless task getting teams out once you're committed to a race though..... Godiva are a large club and can still be scrapping around the night before to fill teams (this is how i've managed to make the first team in some prestigious races like the National 6 Stage Relays!!)
