The good points first – Adam Hickey won the Senior Mens and we continue to keep Havering at bay as we have won both matches.
Congratulations to Hayden Potton and Lewis Jopling who will represent Essex at the Inter Counties in December.
Well done to Elliot Potton – 10th place in his first Cross Country in the U11s. He is only a year 5 and you can bet most of those are in Year 6!! Also he was the only Southend representative.
Now the down side – we failed to field full teams in U13B (none at all), U13G, U15B, U15G, U17M and U17W.
I know in most cases there is a good reason for non attendance.
Therefore a special shout out for Olivia Atkinson and Leo Smith who were Southend’s sole representatives – well done for flying the the flag.
Not forgetting Harry Fairbrass, Chloe Fotherby and Sophie Dixon who were also in short teams!!
Carmen Jones was the only finisher in her race – unfortunately Florence Wallace collide wih a tree – she must be ok now as she was 1st Female in the LOSS 5K

Our club continues dominance of this race with some outstanding performances with Adam Hickey leading the pack closely followed in 3rd place by Hugo Jones in 3rd place with a PB of 35:26 and the gong for U20.
There were some significant uphill stretches
Also note that a significant number of participants had also run in the Cross Country the day before!!

Not content with winning the 10K the club won 1st place in both the male and female categories – Lewis Jopling – overall winner and Chloe Fotherby and Florence Wallace joint female winners
