Due to Covid-19 the ESAA National Schools Cross Country Championships couldn't be held as usual so they put together a virtual championships allowing anyone to enter a time over 2km (juniors - year 8/9) or 5km (Inters and Seniors) that were verified by a teacher or coach. The top 6 (or 4 for seniors) scored for the county team and Berkshire have done extremely well.
We had 69 Berkshire Athletes enter in total and came away with top performances by:
Maddox Gillas - 1st Junior Boys
Isabelle Thorpe - 8th Junior Girls
Abigail Baines - 3rd Senior Girls
Evie Warren - 8th Senior Girls
Lara Tolson - 9th Senior Girls
Team results were:
Junior Boys - 8th
Inter Boys - 3rd
Senior Boys - 8th
Junior Girls - 7th
Senior Girls - 3rd
Well done to all athletes who entered and we look forward to being able to run in person next year!
