Spring In The Park #3

This evening we added course marshals to our team as Malcolm, Damian, Rob & Calvin all stepped up to wear a high viz vest and wave a flag or blow a whistle.

Feels like we had a full racing team too:

U8's - Ivo and Thomas
U10's - Lucy, Albert & Oliver
U12's - Eloise & Hope
U14's - Nico
U16's - Polly, Ellen & Toni

Claire had been baking again (or at least melting and stirring), Christophe was taking photos, Luke was on transponder duty again.

Another great evening of racing with good results all round. Thomas and Ivo came 6th & 2nd in the U8 Boys, Oliver and Albert were 8th & 8th in U10 Boys with Lucy finishing 6th Girl.  In the U12 Girls, Hope and Eloise went for a consistent 4th & 6th.  Nico finished 24th in a strong field of U14 Boys.  Ellen lunged for the line to take 3rd in the U16 Girls with Toni ahead in 2nd place and Polly behind in 5th.

Look forward to seeing everyone again next week, in the mean time, some pictures courtesy of Christophe.
