HELEN Murray led Knutsford Tri Club’s contingent during the Manchester Area Cross Country League’s latest round at the weekend.

She classified inside the top 30 in the senior women’s race at Boggart Hole Clough, where Kate Mills, Claire Hebblethwaite and Lynda Percival followed her across the finish-line to help their team to 23rd place overall.

A 10-strong senior men’s line-up included three Knutsford Tri members – Shane Wolstencroft, Dave Clamp and John Goggins – among the first 200 over the line at the end of a wet, muddy course.

The campaign resumes at Heaton Park next month.
