Mens Surrey League XC - Round 3
Posted by on 14 January 2019
A magnificent 36 Straggler men, the best turnout of this season so far, were at Mitcham Common on Saturday for the 3rd match in the Division 2 Surrey League Cross Country Campaign. The race held in cool and windy conditions tested runners on a 3 lap undulating course over a number of short but steep hills, made up of landfill, on the site of a former waste tip.
The results, however, were anything but rubbish with the Stragglers producing a great 4th place A team finish and 3rd place in the B team competition. In addition there were some brilliant individual performances, with Oli Garner producing his best of the season with a 20th place finish. Once again the headlines go to Tim Haughian, bagging 3rd place in the race to go along with his 2nd place finishes from the first 2 matches. The result now leaves the Strags looking up the table and eyeing a top half finish with one match to go, a great position to be in back in Division 2. Roll on Lloyd Park! (Saturday February 9th)
