Oxford Mail X-Country 2006: Round 1 Ascott-under-Wychwood

Many thanks to all the OUP runners who took part in yesterday's race, and especially to John and Gary for providing lifts and to Cecily who brought tea! Individual results from the race can be found here. The course was a tough one including two (three for the men) runs up a very steep hill and two plunges through a knee-deep water jump! Luckily the weather was fine and sunny and everyone enjoyed the race (at least when it was over!). The next round of the series will take place at Culham Park on Sunday 3rd December 2006 (see here for more details).
