Cross Country training 23/10/19

Well done on another good week everybody! This week we concentrated on good technique by doing some hill sprints. Then we did our H shaped time trial as a mixed event to get an idea of times. I think it was a bit shorter than last week. Great effort all round – they really are improving .
