Jo McDonough and Katie Brandrick were in the North Wales senior ladies’ team and both turned in highly creditable performances. Jo was 17th overall in 32.41 and Katie was only three places behind in 34.12 despite going off-course due to an inattentive marshall.
Less than 24 hours later Russ was in action again, finishing second in a much-depleted team in the Borders Road-Running League fixture at Tattenhall. It was the biggest points total ever accrued by the men’s team, who fielded the bare minimum of 10 runners.
