against girls in P6 and P7. Third to cross the line for Ben Madigan was Ella Johnston coming in 71st. Caitlin Hoey was not far behind coming in 72nd. Ellie Bradley also did very well coming in 78th. The Boys’ race had 139 runners, again with a fast start over the first 200m it was hard to pick a clear leader. Coming over the last hill with 200m to go there was a clear leader, our very own William Davis. William crossed the finish line in 1st place with a time of 3.41mins. Behind him for Ben Madigan came Mitchell McKay, Stuart Wightman 71st, Aaron Lyons, Odhran Catney, Jack McAlister, Lewis Gould, Andrew Meeke and David Service. Well done to the Boys’ and Girls’ teams who competed in what was a very competitive field.

With 110 competitors taking part in the Girls’ race it was a fast start from the keen runners. First for Ben Madigan, coming in a very respectable 10th was Trinity Geddis with a time of 4.22 mins over the 1000 metre course. Trinity was followed by Emmanuela Mathioudaki who came 70th, which is very respectable considering she is only in Prep 5 and was competing
Well done to all who gave up their Saturday morning to take part and represent Ben Madigan in what was a very competitive race. Thursday 2nd December 2010 saw Ben Madigan pupils compete in the second round of the Primary Schools’ Cross Country League at Lisnagarvey High School, Lisburn.

Conditions were not ideal for running as the ground was icy and slippery underfoot in areas. As a result a number of Ben Madigan runners unfortunately slipped and fell early in their races and had to retire. However, there were pupils who were more fortunate and their places and times are listed below.
