Earlier today, Whitemoor competed in their first ever Cross Country event, held at Colwick Park. The mile-long relay race saw 40 teams taking part, coming from schools right across the City.  

 

Each of our girls and boys formed a team of four and had to run around the lake before passing the relay baton to their team mate. The girls completed the course with a time of 0.28.30 and the boys with a time of 0.23.12 (which was bronze medal winning time!). 

 

The event was a great opportunity for some of our Year 5 and 6 Athletes to experience a long-distance race in a competitive but fun surrounding. There was a great atmosphere as our runners were cheered across the finish line by teachers past and present (Miss Dicken!). 

 

Congratulations to those who represented Whitemoor: Oskar D, Luke W, Vlad A, Lynden J, Beth K, Gloria L, Mya H and Georgia N.
