The following races failed to make the cut this year but are very worthy of your support:
Bosworth HM: May 14th
Prestwold 10K: June 18th
much better on the fixtures front this year, as they don’t clash with any other races around that time which they did last year, also good that Markfield is later in the year towards the end of the winter league, as that should avoid the need for the cotton wool safety brigade to stop the race from happening again, so a big pat on the back from me, the only point I would make is that the season could be extended with more races thrown in, otherwise good work..
Are you aware there is a major 10k event on in Leicester on the 3rd of September .
Unfortunately, the large commercial and charity organisers take no account of well-established local fixtures when they set their dates.
that the run for all event I keep reading about, looks as if that weekend could be busy races wise……
Any news on when we can enter the races online? Thanks Luke.
The entry date for the first race (Kibworth 6) will be sent to clubs next week.
Do we have a date when the Stilton race entries will be available on line please?
Not yet. Clubs will be contacted in the next few days.
Hi
Can you amend the Race Diary to show Barrow’s Prestwold 10k date to Sunday June 18th and not June 25th.
Thank you.
