Teesdale AC athletes were racing over the weekend with a team competing in the first meeting of the North Yorkshire & South Durham cross country league. This was a relay race held at Thirsk involving 1 mile laps of a relatively level course. Vicky Bainbridge, Leah Rosengarten and Katy Smith each ran 2 laps in the womens race taking the 13th place out of the 19 teams competing, in an overall time of 55.38. This was a great start and demonstrates the potential for good competition by Teesdale AC in all the season’s cross country races which are held throughout the region.
