Holyrood Park, Edinburgh was the venue for the 2016 Celtic Cross Country/Great Edinburgh Run on Saturday 9th January. North Down AC had two representatives on the Ulster team in the form of Craig McMeechan in the male U20 and Katie Moore in the women U23.
Katie was first Ulster counter when finishing 11th with the remaining Ulster runners finishing 12th and 13th placing the team in 4th position.
Craig ran a very strong race to finish in 8th and helped Ulster to a great 2nd position with the other counters finishing in 3rd and 10th. All of the Ulster runners are either 16 or 17 years of age so a couple of years of successful U20 running lie ahead for the province.
Well done to Katie and Craig on their excellent performances on what was a genuine test of cross country.
