Springbank Park

On October 1st the team travelled to Springbank Park, the weather was great considering the rain over the preveious few days. Once again the Redmen showed they could compete with London and area's best. The Midget girls ran very well with Leandra being the first runner finishing in 27th place. The midget boys stuck pretty close together for mot of their race with Blake and William finishing in 37 and 38 th place. Senior girls had the luxury of running the "great hill" twice, Nicole had a great race finishing 40 of 191 runners. Our highlight of the day came in during the Junior Boys race, Curtis Taylor, after training all summer had his first top 10 finish. He completed the 6km course in 21:11, finishing 9th. Junior girl with Lexi and Megan both having great races, lexi finihing in 33rd spot. Micheal Park had a great race in the Senior boy division finishing in 20th spot of 171 runners, finishing the 7km course with a time of 23:30.
