Unfortunately if we don't get an influx of entries very shortly this could very well be its last year, we have been trying very hard over the last 4/5 years to resurrect its popularity but with very little success. 2015 Was fantastic with the support we received from the runners and organisers of the RunFurther league but without this for 2016 we are again struggling. For a small club and small committee mainly made up of runners its a huge effort to put on and we really need 100 runners on the start line to make it worth it, otherwise we have more officials, first aiders and Civil Defence than competitors.
Infact we only took the decision not to cancel this years event last night at our meeting in support of the off island runners who have already entered for this year.
Its such a shame we only ever receive great feedback, but this doest seem to boost the entries.
