A STRONG Great Britain team including Manx athlete Keith Gerrard will head to Hungary to contest the 2012 Spar European Cross-Country Championships with hopes of a podium position.
Gerrard, who returned to the UK on Thursday after one month’s altitude training in Kenya, gained automatic selection after taking fifth place in the trial at Liverpool’s Sefton Park on Saturday.
The event will take place on Sunday, December 9 in Szenterdre, to the north of Budapest.
