Lovely to see our students at the Beds/Herts County Athletic championships over the weekend. Some EPIC PB's and medals collected in very warm conditions. They wore their club shirts with pride and all finished with smiles on their faces @LeightonAthlete @BedsCountyAC @DistanceMk

Another huge performance to wrap up the meet for our distance squad! Eli Peveto made a decisive move with 1000m to go that only teammate @Gwheeler98 could match, as they finished ๐ฅ๐ฅ in the 3000m w/ blazing altitude converted times of 8:09 & 8:10! Absolute warriors this weekend.
