A bright day greeted the 90 cadets from 15 squadrons who braved the cold to take part in this years Inter Squadron Cross Country Championships at Worthy Down.  The sun soon came out to take the chill off the air. Maybe the fact it was a little chilly encouraged the cadets to keep running rather than walk the course!!

The Wing Commander made his appearance just on cue to present the medals to those who came 1st or 2nd in their classes and also the team medals.  The presentations ended with the top squadron receiving the trophy which was almost the size of some of the cadets who took part.
