29 Hunts runners ran at this event in Mansfield yesterday and collectively they ensured our best ever performance in this.
Ollie Loveday was our best placed individual runner finishing 12th out of 92 runners on the first leg of the U15 boys’ race. He was ably backed up Oli Albone and Frankie Benstead and the U15 boys team finished in a highly creditable 19th place.
Our senior men’s A team consisting of Chris Smith, Isaac Ellard, James Orrell, and Joey Croft finished 31st out of the 177 teams.
By far our highest ever placing.
Our B team finished 89th which equalled the position achieved by our A team last year!
Extra credit to Oli Albone and Isaac for coming along and running despite feeling well below Par.
Well done and thanks to all.
Hoping for an even bigger team at Mansfield next year.
