14 February 2020
It was a fruitful day for all of our cross-country runners. Out of 20 schools including; Dragon, Cheam, Cothill, Caldicott, Summer Fields, Moulsford, MCS, Chandlings, St Hugh’s, Pinewood, Elstree, Farleigh, Beachborough, Thorngrove, Oratory Prep and over 630 runners, Abingdon Prep came third in the boys’ overall competition.
Our Under 8s came first overall in the Under 8 boys’ team competition with our first three finishers placed 3rd, 4th and 5th in the race. Our Under 9s gained a great deal of experience from competing in this event and have already shown huge improvement since the beginning of the academic year. The Under 10 boys finished second overall in the team competition. George and Joshua finished 9th and 14th respectively. In the final race of the day Nathan finished in 10th place in the boys Under 11 race. Well done to all of the runners, all of whom were a pleasure to be with for the afternoon.
