Law and District AAC athletes represent West of Scotland

Law and District Amateur Athletics Club athletes represented West of Scotland at the Inter-District Cross Country Championships in Stirling recently.

The athletes were selected in October as a reward for their hard work and dedication, following a tough – but exciting – start to the cross country season.

The race was run in wild, wet and windy conditions, and everyone had their work cut out over the gruelling course.

At under-13 level, Joscelyn Kennedy finished 41st in the 3k race in a time of 15.02 minutes.

Under-15 runner Jessie Gilchrist finished her 4k race in an impressive 26th place with a time of 16.40 minutes.

Fiona Currie (under-15) finished in 66th place, in a time of 18.41 minutes.

At under-15 level, Oscar Logan had a superb run in his 4k race, finishing in 20th place with a time of 14.53 minutes, winning team silver with Team West.

Craig Cherrie and Logan Whitton, both competing for Law and District, finished in 38th and 69th, respectively.

Donald Gilchrist, at under-17 level, finished his 6k in 37th place with a time of 21.54 minutes, followed by Finn Milligan in 78th place.

Last to race were the under-23 and senior men, over an 8km course.

By that point the mud, rain and wind were making conditions hard going, and Richard Beattie finished in 150th place, in a time of 39.21 minutes.

James Gillon, under-20, had also been selected to take part but was ill and unable to complete the course, despite making a brave effort.
