SERIES FINAL - RESULTS.

That's the last leg done and dusted for 2012/13.

Well done to everyone who took part - hope you enjoyed it. And thanks to one and all who helped out in planning, setting up, marshaling etc for all the legs ("they also serve, who only stand and point...")

Here are the results of leg 5

SENIORS
JUNIORS

NOTE: Known issue. In the seniors results for race 5 two numbers are "wrong" - two possible reasons for this. (1) The number was taken down wrongly - for which we apologize in advance. (2) Runners turned up wearing their numbers for 2011/12 (it's happened before).


And here are the final results:

SENIOR (By age category)
SENIOR overall.

JUNIOR (By age category)
JUNIOR overall.

See you all next November. Check this site later in the year for details.

LAST LEG - DETAILS - UPDATED 02/01/13

This has been an exceptional Border cross country series with a record breaking turnout. The Final leg will be in Galashiels next to Swimming pool on Sunday 10th Feb 2013.

Junior Race 11:30 am
Senior race 12:00 noon.

Organisers would like to request that runner’s park either in the town center or in the grounds of Galashiels Academy and avoid parking at the Swimming Pool.  It is important that the swimming pool area is kept clear and access is available for local residents attending the pool.

The presentations will be held a short walk from the finish from 1pm at Galashiels Academy Elm Row Galashiels TD1 3HU, where soup and a roll will be served.
The attached map of the route is only a guide and this may change due to conditions on the day of the race. Please note that organisers do not recommend spikes for this route. 

SEE YOURSELF ON THE BIG(ish) SCREEN......


On another matter [Gala] will be setting up a power point presentation showing the many photographs of this year’s Xcountry series,  this will be run on the big screen at the Galashiels Academy while we are waiting for the results.  Would it be possible for you to contact all other clubs and request that they email some of their best photographs so I could include  them in the presentation. 


Please email photographs to president@galaharriers.co.uk


BEST 3 AFTER 4 (Updated 03/02/13)

With only one more leg to go (at Gala), and with the series now the best three out of five, we thought it prudent to bring the "scores on the doors" so far after four legs.

So here they are:

SENIOR

JUNIOR

And here are the category places (so far). Again it's the best three that count....

SENIOR

JUNIOR 


Please note that these results reflect a few changes (names - spellings etc.), but also reflect a slight change in the Peebles results. To that effect the revised Peebles results are reflected HERE.

BERWICK - CANCELLED. (Update 18/01/13)

Please note that, as some may already be aware, the next leg of the Borders Cross Country Series, due to be held at Berwick on 27th January has been CANCELLED.

There are health and safety issues that can not be ignored and mean that this race can not go ahead. These are:
 
"The River estuary is in a very dangerous state after all the debris has been washed down and is now blocking the start and finish area around Spittal point and on to the beach as well.

Also the state of the cliff top tracks are very wet and slippery because of the weather and with it being an out and back course and narrow passing places with sheer drops onto the beach and it is dangerous hazard.

Priority has to be safety first in any event we organise as a club before there is a serious incident that we would always regret."

The series will be reduced to five legs. This means that overall position will now be calculated on the best 3 results and the team positions will be based on the best 4 results.
