Out racing for Biggleswade AC Juniors were Oliver Weddell and Sidney Hammond in the Under 15 Boys, Ross Bone and Lewis Evans in the Under 11 Boys and Lauren Bone competing in the Under 13 Girls. Strong performances from all led to BAC finishing 6th overall in the Juniors Team placings. After three races the BAC Juniors sit in 9th place.

The Seniors were also competing with their third race of the Three Counties Cross Country League at Baldock on Sunday 17th December. Unlike last year’s snowy conditions, the weather was a little kinder to the runners although the recent rain did make for some challenging muddy sections. Biggleswade AC’s women put in a sterling effort to improve on the Team’s two previous race results, achieving a fantastic 4th position and contributing to a combined Team position of 9th. BAC Seniors’ are currently in 12th place within the League.
