XC @ Thetford; Ariel Pratt places 5th

Our XC girls, Christina Fulford, Ariel Pratt, and Lindsey Carter ran very well at their meet at Thetford on Tuesday the 9th. Chrisitina is the only returning runner from last year. RA can't compete as a team at these meets due to not having the minimum number of five runners, however they are able to represent RA as individual competitors. Ariel, running in her first event ever, placed fifth overall completing the 3.1 mile course in 24:16. It was a terrific showing. Christina placed twenty second with Lindsey close behind at twenty fifth. The girls continue to train rigorously daily under the guidance of Coach Barber. They compete again on the 16th of September at Windsor.
