The first race of the 2019 cross country season took place at a very muddy Kilmarnock on Saturday. This was a chance for those new to this type of running to get their teeth into a true cross country course that had plenty of mud and the infamous Kilmarnock swamp. There was a healthy turnout from Seaforth with the Senior Men being particularly well represented.
The Junior races take place over a 2500m course with 3 athletes per team. The first runner is an under 13 athlete with leg 2 allowing for either an u13 or u15 and leg 3 being an u15 or u17. The Senior Womens race comprises of teams of 3 athletes each taking on a 4000m course and the Senior Men being teams of 4 athletes taking on the same 4000m course.
In the Junior Girls race the Seaforth team of Iona Hubbard, Sophie McColm and Morven Hubbard took a creditable 5th place with the 2nd Seaforth team taking 27th place in a 48 complete team field.
The Junior Boys race saw the first Seaforth team home in 18th place with the 2nd team taking 24th, the 3rd team 26th of 47 complete teams.
In the Senior Womens race Seaforth saw teams home in 10th and 48th place.
