Nelson Primary Schools Cross Country Championships 2010

A team of 19 selected runners recently competed in the annual Nelson Primary Schools Cross Country Championships at Saxton Field. There were over 385 children competing from throughout the Nelson District. All were top runners from every school represented at the event.

They competed over a 2 km course which proved challenging. The wet weather prior to the event had provided very muddy conditions with a large amount of water lying on the course. This combined with the wind chill factor made going difficult. All gave their best and showed great sportsmanship. Congratulations team, well done.
