Goring Cross Country

'I can do it... I can do it!' These were Olivia's words as she made her way around the course, having to dig deep and tell herself to keep going, even though the going was tough. She won the Olympic Value medal for Courage and Determination on that day.

This is the kind of effort and attitude that has enabled the Nettlebed Cross Country runners to be so successful. These events are certainly a test of running skill but also of mental strength.

Congratulations to all runners who have taken part in races this season. Your amazing efforts have produced some excellent individual and team results and secured a third place overall.
