Mud, steep hills, up and down, plus a water hazard greeted three members of Teesdale Athletics Club as they undertook the Hartlepool leg of the NYSD Cross Country season at Summerhill Country Park. Louise Franks, Alison Mounter and Dave Raymond took on the challenging course with the ladies completing 4.6 km, in the senior/Vet women’s race, in 30.35 and 34.28 minutes respectively. Dave had 8.9km to run and completed the U20/Senior/Vet men’s race in 48.29 minutes. All three participants finished with wet feet, muddy legs and with a smile on their faces having thoroughly enjoyed the challenges the course had thrown at them.
