Nearly 400 of our boys and girls ran courses of varying lengths (1.5 miles for Fourth Form and Remove), 2 miles for senior girls and 3.2 miles for senior boys. The conditions were very wet and slippery for the Fourth Form but good (if slightly muddy) conditions were ‘enjoyed’ by all other year groups.
