MITCHELL CROSS COUNTRY 2021 RESULTS Hot and humid were the words of the day. I was very happy that each and every runner from Avon completed the race. I was also very pleased how the team came together and helped each other after one finished the run. Also thanks to the parents for their support and encouraging words that they gave to their child and to others running. It is great to get that kind of support in this activity.
