On a blustery Saturday afternoon (29/01/2022) a special team of runners nutters from QRC took part in the Dumfries Running Club (DRC) Cross Country run down at Kingholm, Dumfries. The course was a deceptively tough little 6.4K that was (un)fortunately not muddy but the wind posing it’s own challenges, with all completing the race successfully.
Marie Marshall came in as second female with a time of 24m 48s and good 2 minutes clear of her third placed rival. Alexandrea Gonzales started strong and was unlucky to miss out on a top 3 finish, but a good solid 4th a minute in front of the 5th placed runner. With Wendy and Lynsey pleased to finish in the times they did.
The men’s field was even more formidable than the ladies, with the first placed male finishing with a time of 19m 50s with only 3 minutes separating first place to 5th, the QRC boys had a tough race with two very strong performances from Gordon Vivers and Stuart Black.
