Middleton had a tremendous day at Sutton Park for the British Masters Athletics Federation Relays on Saturday. The cool, dry and overcast conditions encouraged fast running over an undulating 5K course.
Provisional results have the ladies coming 9th in the V55 Age Category and 12th in the V45, not bad results for a National!
For the first time in many years we were able to field to men's teams - a V65 and a V35, a good indication of the strength in depth of the club at the moment. Well done all!
Middleton Harriers participate in a wide range of relay and Team events throughout the year. Road Racing, Trail, Fell and Cross Country - we do them all!
