North West XC
On a day when storm Deirdre made her presence felt at the North West XC, the purple vests braved the wintry conditions where all age categories were represented. U12, U14 and U16 saw our young Titans and Development squad give their all, with gutsy runs from all. The hotly contested 6k mixed senior race was a blistering affair from the start. With 6 to score in the men’s race Foyle Valley men hoped to retain their title. Unfortunately on the day with a few injuries before and during the race saw them marginally beaten to second place. The Foyle Valley ladies also with a depleted squad battled hard against the conditions and had strong runs. Pius Mc Intyre claimed the M35 prize and Emily McLaughlin claimed the F20 prize. Thanks to coaches and supporters for encouragement.
