6th for Jacob in Euro Champs (and Sarah 16th)

Congratulations to Jacob who finished in an excellent 6th place for the GB U20 team this morning in the European Mountain Running Championships in Madeira. Home in 51minutes 27seconds for the 7.9km uphill only course, he was just nine seconds adrift of GB lead Max Nichols in 5th. With third counter Jack Willis 14th that was enough to secure team bronze for the GB boys behind Turkey (2, 3, 10) and Italy (4, 7 and 8), making up for narrowly missing a team medal last year.
