The Tony James annual Junior Cross Country event took place on Tuesday, thankfully in dry conditions! 10 Schools travelling to participate in this prestigious event, with over 300 children running in either the Y4 fun race or competitive Y5/6 race. Bromley High were well represented, 38 girls in total took part; for some this was their very first experience of a cross country race! The Y5 and Y6 race was first to go. Covering a distance of around 2300m, the track looped and weaved across the school fields, challenging the stamina of the best of them. Marjolaine (5th) and Sophie (10th) finished in medal positions, with Rowan (11th) and Martha (17th) also scoring for the team. The team were placed 3rd overall, a fantastic achievement. The Y4 race was a little more welcoming to ease them into cross country style racing. They covered just 1 lap of the route, around 1150m, though still quite a challenge. They controlled their pace very well throughout to enable them all to complete the route and finish with a sprint! Congratulations to Rosie (3rd) and Freya (4th) who collected medals for their top 10 finishes, but also to the rest of the Y4 team on completing your first Tony James cross country!
