Calling all ROs, Clubs and potential ROs. Could you create an AL race?


We are down to maybe only one or two A long races worthy of being selected outside the Lake District. This is largely due to courses and/or competitor numbers being impeded by conservation work.


We would like the Championships to be representative of all English hill and fell terrain. Maybe you could create a new race or adapt an existing AM or BL? Bring in extra income for your club or worthy cause maybe?

Please consider:



  • .A challenging course, worthy of being a Championship counter.


  • .Avoiding high summer, when the Lakes ALs dominate the calendar.


  • .A good “clean” course with no congestion or bottlenecks (particularly at the start).


  • .Good infrastructure; venue facilities, road access, parking.


  • .No severe restrictions on numbers, land access. This will mainly apply in National Parks.



Please consider giving it a go. Thank you.
