JSB Plumbing League, Grangemouth – Saturday 30th April

Many congratulations to all the junior Lothian athletes who took part in today’s event at Grangemouth.

Under 11’s –Robbie Fleming and Sarah McCormack competed for the first time ever in the 200m and Long Jump.
U 13’s- Luke McKenzie new club member and  a first time competitor competed in the 1500m and Kelsie Baird, also new to Lothian Running Club ran an excellent 200m race as did Lara Dow. Tara Walsh represented the club once again in the High Jump and 1500m race in which she showed not only her talent for longer distance running but keeping enough energy back for a good sprint finish.
U 15’s- Duncan Kuwall competed in the 1500m and Grant Kirkwood had a busy meet doing the 200m, Javelin and Shot Putt. Taylor Barr and Louise Kerr ran excellent 200m races and Lauren Arbuckle and Bethany Nelson ran well at the longer distance of 1500m.

Unfortunately we were only able to submit one relay team and our Under 15 girls (Louise, Lauren, Bethany and Taylor) had an excellent race finishing 2nd or 3rd.

Times/places will be published when available.  Many thanks to all the parents who supported the event and made my job a lot easier by assisting when necessary.  A special mention also goes to Mary Inglis whose help behind the scenes benefitted all.  Thank you.

Jane Kirkwood, Coach
