It was a very pleasant day for the 2nd cross country of the season with the sun out overlooking the sea. As it was Rememberance Sunday there was a short reading and minute silence before we lined up for the start. Warren Hill is a demanding course, starting at the top of the hill after about 1/3 mile slight incline there is a two mile descent and then 2 mile back up then an undulating finish but being chalk downland it is not very muddy. It was a strong turnout form Uckfield with 12 runners, 8 men and 4 ladies and with the support of the 10 runners from our partner club in the cross country league we filled the full team of 10 men and 5 ladies with all the various age categories. Running from Uckfield were Graeme Hall, Richard Coates, Graham West, Andy Taylor, Julia Jones, Stewart Gasson, Jason Remington, Richard Page, Catherine Harker, Chris Lugg, Christine Tait and Tanya Edmondson. Overall the team finished 6th out of the 12 teams in the league and are now joint 4th with Crowborough/Wadhurst and Hailsham Harriers. It was a good result given it was such a competitive event with all clubs showing a good turnout and a total of 251 runners in the event.
Emma and Dayle also organised a social run from Fairwarp to the airmans grave on Ashdown Forest where Uckield Runners was part of the official wreath laying ceremony.
