THE CROSS country season drew to a close in impressive fashion for Bromsgrove & Redditch Athletic Club runners at the Inter-Counties Cross Country Championships on Saturday.

Their club-mate Simon Lanckham finished 215th in the senior men’s race and Gareth Richardson and Alex Johnson were 183rd and 246th respectively in the under 17 men’s event.
