September Update - Sprint Relays, NEGP, Farringdon XC, NECAA Pentathlon and more!

Farringdon XC 
What a start to the cross country season! Farringdon brought out a sea of green and white representing each age group, with two new athletes racing cross country for the first time. First back was the amazing Harris coming 🥇 in the U12s. Next up we had Alba coming 🥉 in the U14s. Followed by a 🥇for Alastair and 🥈 for George in the U18s. A huge well done to everyone on some tough hills! Looking forward to the season ahead #teamblyth 💚🤍💚🤍

NECAA Pentathlon 
What a day for Team Blyth at the NECAA Pentathlon Champs on Saturday! Harry took a stunning gold medal in the U14 boys comp, with HJ and SP PB's along the way. Safia produced a remarkbly consistent pentathlon, and she secured silver in the final event of the day to cap a great season. Kimi and Charlotte were 6th and 8th, after a day of mixed fortunes but full commitment. Kandis took part in the NEMAA event, and was 1st V40 with 2235pts. Well done team!
