The annual East District Cross Country Relay Championships took place at Meadowmill near Prestonpans on Saturday 09 October 2010.
Lasswade fielded five teams, one young females team, two young males teams and two senior mens teams. The girls finished in 18th place overall, the boys 15th and 16th and the senior men 11th and 27th. It was good to see so many athletes turn out for the club.
The senior mens race was dominated by Central who took both first and second places with Corstorphine third. After a solid start by the Lasswade men Niall Sheehan, 8th at the end of first leg and Colin Menzies also 8th at the end of leg two. The third leg saw Ross Matheson run the fifth fastest leg of the day to pull Lasswade up to 4th going into the final stage. On the fourth leg Ross Finlayson did his best to hold off the opposition finishing in 11th place.
Well done to everyone in all the teams.
The National Cross Country Relays at Cumbernauld are only a couple of weeks away and I hope to see you all there.
Thanks to everyone who took part.
