Several Moray Road Runners helped North District teams to medal success at the Scottish Inter-District Cross County championships at Stirling last weekend.

Beth Urquhart, Nicole Taylor and Hannah Stephen won team bronze in the under-15 girls, while Blair and Josh Milne also took bronze in the under-17 boys event.

Well done to all of them and to everyone who ran in difficult muddy conditions.

This Saturday the next round of the North District XC League takes place at Peterhead, with a good contingent of MRRs expected to make the journey. Good luck to everyone.

The club is looking for volunteers for the Kinloss to Lossie Half Marathon on Sunday February 16. Anyone who can help should contact club chairman Gareth Jenkins.

Moray Road Runners enjoyed a successful day at the North District XC Championships last Saturday with several prizewinners.

There were first places for Ellyn Smith in the under-17 girls, Michelle Slater (VW40) and Paul Rogan (VM50).

Gareth Jenkins took second in the VM40 category and was also part of the men’s team which took second place. There was also silver for the under-15 girls’ team and bronzes for the senior women and under-17 boys.

There is the chance for further cross country success for several club runners, with a good representation from the club in the North District team which will be taking part in the Scottish Inter-District championships in Stirling in,p> January.

Congratulations to all those selected.

This Sunday the club will be holding one of its main events of the year, the Lossiemouth 10 Mile Turkey Trot.  A volunteer roster has been put on the club’s Facebook page, but if you are able to help please come along and offer your services as we can never have too many volunteers.  Club members should also remember to bring along some food to ensure everyone gets fed afterwards.

Good luck to everyone taking part.
