CROSS COUNTRY GOLD FOR ERYRI'S WOMEN

At the final Grand Prix Express North Wales Cross Country League race at Oswestry, Eryri's Women showed the men up by at least turning out and supporting the club and in the process winning the title for the first time since the mid nineties while our veteran women also won bronze. Despite an appeal to members to support the club at the event only eight men turned out, Mike Blake was there after competing in the Titterstone Clee race in the morning as always ready to support the club but due to a call of nature, he missed the start! Richard Roberts somewhat saved the men's blushes by not only winning the race but also the overall North Wales Cross Country League title following in the footsteps of some other illustrious Eryri athletes who have also won the title: Colin Donnelly, Emlyn Roberts, Colin Jones and Alun Vaughan among them.
Full report to come from Maggie.
