Despite the arctic conditions that are gripping the country the very best cross country athletes from City secondary schools came together to compete in the annual City Schools Championships at Wollaton Park on 16th January.
With the park covered in a layer of snow the course had to be altered to ensure athletes followed a safe course, and despite the challenging conditions the 200 plus athletes put in some remarkable performances setting some outstanding times.
Special thanks go to the staff at Nottingham Boys High School who organised the event and working tirelessly to ensure the championships went ahead and everyone had a positive experience.
