Red Rose – Chorley
The Second round of the Red Rose XC was held at Chorley.
In the U13 Boys Lewis Wilkes, Jake Glendenning, Robert Seddon & brand new to the club Kieran Kinealy managed to claim 6th boys team. A special mention must go to Ellie Baker in the U13 girls our soul runner who held onto a credible 29th place. Meanwhile the U15 girls of Gemma Howe & Hannah Stephenson in 16th & 18th respectively ran another good XC race, albeit track ladies!
Luke Massey and Robert Gibson gave RMI a presence in the boys U15s. Surprise of the day was our only RMI runner Nathan Townsend Winning the U17 boys / Senior Ladies race. Not the favourite on the line as this is his 1st year in U17 XC he ran super tactical race overtaking Joseph Howe of Blackburn half way round. From there on in he increased his lead and held onto a great 18 sec lead past the line.
