A cold but sunny winters morning greeted Christy Durbin, Jonathan and Rebecca Bint at the Infinity cross country event at Great Notley Country Park, Braintree on 03rd December.

There were 3 courses depending on the age group but all 3 races finished with a steep 75m uphill run into to the finish on top of the hill.

Wrapped up warm in fluffy hat and gloves, Rebecca set off in the TriStart’s race finishing 7th from the 8 starters.
The TriStar1 and 2 was a combined race.  Jonathan finished 8th overall, but was the 5th boy so a great result.
Finally Christy ran in the combined T3 and Youth race, putting in a strong run to finish 4th overall (first girl)
Then finally, for those not sure about travelling to Braintree, an added incentive…  there is an outlet mall nearby with Hollister, Nike shop, Asics shop amongst others… and numerous restaurants….

Next race is due to be Walden in Feb, although Hoddesdon looking at running another XC the final weekend in January.
