An amazing weekend in Nelson at National Cross Country.

Burnside High School —

A very muddy course even by Cross Country standards.


No individual podium finishes but the goal was for all the team to accomplish their Personal goals and the big smiles of satisfaction showed they all did that.

The students in this group all love to run and their enthusiasm and fun was contagious. Theo Walker 13ABJ gained a Bronze medal in the Canterbury Senior Boys A team.

Classic moments:

  • The Burnside student who lost his shoe in the first bog and ran 6km in one shoe.
  • The Burnside student who wore his stylish green track pants for his race to keep his legs clean.
  • The Burnside student who thought it was OK to support the Blues when we watched the rugby!

Well done team.
