Dunbartonshire Cross Country Championships 2006

Mud, Glorious Mud

This was a real cross country course, held in perfect mud out at Kirkintilloch, exemplified by the fact that the winning time for the men’s 5.8 mile course was almost 40 minutes. As Drew said, it was the muddiest cross country he has ever run. Chris was first Westie male home, ahead of Don who scalped Steffen. They were followed by Hamilton, Jason, Grimorr, Archie and Drew, all of whom , it has to be said, looked as if they were enjoying themselves tremendously!

In the women’s 3. 8mile race, Jane had a great run, finishing 6th and 3rd vet. Muffy also ran well to finish 11th. It’s a pity Christine didn’t make it as we would almost certainly have picked up a women’s team prize, but hey, so what…everyone was having such fun that prizes and points were the last thing on folks minds!
