The three team scorers on Saturday were 16th Jo Hall, 32nd Lana Turnbull and 51st Christine MacVarish and their total of 99pts on the day were enough to place them runners up in the overall classification with 180pts, a single point ahead of 3rd placed Falkirk V. H. Fife AC were the clear winners on 79pts. Points were accumulated over the three venues at Livingston, Alloa and Broxburn.
There was an excellent turn-out of LRC members at the event with a total of 28 over the various age category’s. The Senior mens race saw 16 runners in action and they were led home by club captain Max McNeil in a marvelous 6th place , McNeil been in a fine vein of form in cross country events during January representing both Scotland and the East District. Lothian’s mens team finished the East League series in 9th place overall.
A big thank you to our Team Managers (Martin and Margaret), and everyone else who lent a hand.
