This weekend, Croups were out racing in a range of disciplines and terrains 🔴🟢

The fast racing continuing in the Home Nations 5k. We had Croups competing across the field, with PBs and fantastic runs being seen in wet and wild conditions. A huge shoutout must go to Alaw Beynon-Evans, who competed in the Elite Women’s race for Wales. Alaw has been a staple in the Wales team since 2004, an absolutely brilliant achievement 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

From 5ks, to Ultras, and a huge well done to Cassie Summers who finished 4th Female in the Wyedean Ultra on Sunday! The route saw huge climbs, tough trails and biblical rain, but Cassie was smiling all the way through! 😁
