The Seniors & Masters scoring gets very confusing with everyone in one race running for the senior team, with different size teams to score for Men & Women. Masters can also run within their own age group individually and in teams of 3, or an age group below, clear as mud? Hopefully we are close to getting it right for you:
Senior Women: won team SILVER with the quartet of Gemma Tutton & Individual BRONZE, 27th Kristy Smith, 28th Maria Kowal & 30th Iona Evans.
Senior Men: came away with team SILVER with the scoring six of Dewi Griffiths who had a fantastic run for individual GOLD in his 9th victory in the Welsh Championships, followed home by 5th Josh Griffiths, 12th Edward Davies, 19th Ben Mitchell, 28th Jamie Taylor-Caldwell & 32nd William Ralston.
