Thanks to everyone that ran in or organised race 2 of the season!
Ladies race
There was a familiarity to the top 3: Emily Hosker-Thornhill of St Mary's won the race in 15:43, establishing a 100% win record at LCLs this season. Emily Moss of Royal Holloway was second in 16:02 and Gemma Astin of St Mary's was third in 16:36.
The top 10 then ran: Sarah Astin (St Mary's), Anne Whitfield (Brunel), Isabel Brinsden (Holoway), Abi Scholfield (Bedford), Maria Blocher (King's), Anna Rust (Bedford), Meg Kibza (UCL).
UL Individual results
First lady over the line from a UL College was Emil Moss of Royal Holloway in 2nd. The rest of the top five from UL college runners were Isabel Brinsden (Royal Holloway), Maria Blocher (King's), Meg Kobza (UCL), and Ella Fuller (UCL).
The top Imperial runner was Sophie Kirk in 19th yet again, although this time far more closely followed by her teammates Josie Bowler and Imogen Keane in 20th and 21st respectively. They're catching you up Sophie!
Ladies team results: Rumble in the Richmond Jungle!
St Mary's maintain their top spot with 586 points.
Highlight of the meet is the thriller of a contest between UCL and King's for top spot on the UL ladies team competition. One solitary point separated these two households (both alike in dignity) after the first race on Hampstead Heath and the sequel did not disappoint. From this ancient grudge breaks a new mutiny as the entirety of both UCL and King's first team runners were separated by a total of only 9 seconds at the finish!
Maria Blocher (King's) had a storming run to finish 8th in 17:36, but only 4 seconds behind was Meg Kobza of UCL, followed by her teammates Ella Fuller (17:44) and Emily Bliss (17:45), who finished with exactly the same time as Laura Oransfield of King's, a mere 2 seconds later Shannon Colman finished in 15th place, completing the King's first team.
King's and UCL are still only separated by a single point, but in a reversal to the result on the Heath, UCL are now ahead 521 points to 520.
The Ladies team contest now reads:
| 1 | St Mary's | 586 |
| 2 | University College London | 521 |
| 3 | King's College London | 520 |
| 4 | Brunel University | 485 |
| 5 | Imperial College London | 479 |
| 6 | King's II | 463 |
| 7 | University of Reading | 458 |
| 8 | Royal Holloway | 450 |
| 9 | UCL II | 426 |
| 10 | King's III | 395 |
Mens Race
Just like at the Heath St Mary's had a strong showing with Jason Pricket winning in 28:36. He was followed home by teammate Luca Russo in 28:51 but John Bird of Brunel broke into the top 3, finishing in 28:57. Joe Morwood of St Georges and Nathaniel Tamaillon of LSE of the UL colleges had very strong runs.

| 9 | Rhys Glastonbury | St Mary's | 4 | 142 |
