For the second year in a row, Kettering Town Harriers finished 5th out of 86 teams in the Wellingborough Multi-Terrain series.

This year, the course was heavy going, and water logged in places, making life difficult for the runners.

Rebecca Hall, who was first lady in the third round of the 10 km event, an improvement over her third place in the second round, and Andrew Clawson, who was first veteran man in the third round of the 5km event, also an improvement over his third place in the in the second round. Also running well was Lee Coulson, who was second veteran man in the second round 5km race.
