Aycliffe Junior Athlete continues to Shine!
As the winter months draw in, the track season comes to an end and the Cross Country season kicks in. Junior runner Trinity Donoghue U11s has been competing in the Start Fitness North Eastern Harrier league. On 25th September Trinity made her Harrier League debut at Wrekenton, in warm conditions and a new format, she found herself in a strong position towards the end of the race. Locked in a battle with two others she took 13th place out of 52 runners. With a great time of 7 minutes 26 seconds.
Next session was 10th October with the picturesque setting of Druridge Bay on the Northumberland coast. Different conditions this time, but with more experience Trinity showed her maturity by taking nearly 30 seconds off her previous time to achieve new PB of 6 minutes 58 seconds. Again taking 13th place out of a field of 56 runners. Fantastic progression and shows there is more to come from this Diamond!
