Would be good to have this in the champs. It's pretty local.

yea,you had a storming run last year rob...and I also think its worth putting in the champs..maybe barry fancies a look at it on sat..

Hi both,
there are lots of races to have a go at in our club champs. As scoring is based on race time vs winners time then having extra races is not an issue other than more number cruching for me. I'm happy to include other races if there are at least 5 harriers and I'm asked so to do. This might apply to the anniversary waltz.

Re your cloud 9 run Rob. You were 3.4% ahead of your handicap so shows you are running well. You just need to keep that up for another 5 of the club races (including a long) and you my favorite to win the handicap competition.

I'm still feeling the effects of the Edale Skyline so will give the Chicken run a miss. There's rugby to watch as well.

Cheers Barry
