Twenty-seven Sphinx AC men participated in the third of this season’s Birmingham League XC events, on our home turf at Wyken Croft.
The performances on the day were enough to move us clear of the relegation zone, which is a relief.
Conditions were rather chilly but the course was dry and largely firm underfoot, with only a few stretches of sloppy mud. Being hosted by Sphinx AC, marshals were plentiful and enthusiastic. The post-race kitchen volunteers did a marvelous job, serving up the brilliant range and quantity of cakes so kindly provided by everybody.
