The Cheshire County Cross-Country Championships at Arrowe Park provided some encouraging performances for Wallasey A.C.
In the senior men's race, James Downey led the team in with a very strong finish, placed 68th. James was closely followed by John Cottrell whose 72nd place reflects a fine comeback after a lengthy absence.
Pete Lonsdale was not far behind John. Dave Walton, Keith Simpson and Ken Westall all ran well to complete the scoring six, especially Ken, who was running in his first cross-country race for the club.
In the juniors, Nick Burke's improvement was consolidated with a solid performance, finishing a respectable 14th place.
