TBirds impress again!
Monday, September 29, 2014 at 6:59AM TBird athletes performed impressively at the second meet of the season; the South Fraser Cross Country Meet at Bear Creek park, this past-weekend.

In the girls 10 year old race, a mix up by the rabbit led to a shuffling of the finishing positions with Sophie Forsyth finishing a close 2nd, Finley Butler 4th, Delia Warrington 9th, followed by Sophie Kazirmirski in 10th.
Chloe Cady had a really strong race to win the girls' 11 year old race, with Veronica Bumbulovic showing improved fitness in 9th place.
