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.

Several senior athletes took part in this annual road relay over a 2.7 mile course on a beautiful Saturday afternoon in Houston, Renfrewshire.
We fielded both a mens and a womens team with both lead off runners getting their respective teams off to a great start. Barney Phillips was 3rd (13.30) on the first leg in the mens race and Keira Murray was 3rd woman (15.06). There was a solid performance on the second leg from Niall Sheehan who finished 5th (13.52) in the mens race and Wilma Kerr (19.29) kept the women in the top 6. On the third leg for the men with another good performance was John Murray (14.04) who finished 7th. Lorna Rice was the final runner in the womens team with a solid run (20.11) bringing the women home in around 13th place (not easy to identify womens teams from the results).
Unfortunately, the mens team was incomplete as our fourth runner cancelled at the last minute. However, at the end of the third leg we were within 20 seconds of 4th spot so who knows what could have happened. The womens team was complete as it was teams of three.
