Fiona B. (Year 7) and Louise S. (Year 10) participated on Wednesday in the Welsh Schools' National Cross Country Championships in Brecon. The girls competed for Cardiff and the Vale in the Year 7 and Middle School Girls' events, which each drew 8 regional teams of 12 runners from across Wales. The going was tough underfoot given the the recent weather, but luckily it stayed dry for the event. Fiona (23rd of 96) was the 6th Cardiff and the Vale girl home and made up part of the winning team. Congratulations, Fiona, on your gold medal! Louise was a late entrant (second reserve), and her goal was just not to come last! She succeeded in that 43 girls finished after her, so congratulations to Louise as well!
