GCC Secondary Cross Country
This year’s Secondary GCC Cross-Country Carnival was a great day with no rain and lots of sunshine! The heat started to increase throughout the day which made hydration and seeking shade an important part of the day for our runners and officials.
Amongst participants this year, we have a group of talented runners that through training and determination managed to finish their races within the first six placings. The majority of these runners will have the opportunity to compete at the District and Regional cross-country competitions.
Congratulations to Ararat who this year managed to win the Middle School Cross Country and to Sinai who took out the Senior School Competition. Congratulations also to Ararat who finished in front overall from Year 3 to Year 12. There was only one point separating Sinai and Zion from second and third place!
