Melissa helps GB to silvers at Euro Cross 2018!
In the Spar-sponsored 11th European Cross-Country Championships staged at Tilburg, Netherlands, on December 9th, the GB SW team packed brilliantly in 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th (of the 69 finishers) in the 8300m multi-lap race on an undulating course of natural and artificial challenges. Dry on the day, but muddy underfoot, the course and opposition were challenging. With three to count, GB totalled 24 points, Melissa finishing 8th in 26-59. (Winner in 26-05.) The hosts packed a little better with 4th, 5th and 11th totalling 20. The other two GB runners finished 15th and 20th.
And so Melissa caps her year with another international medal! Brilliant!
