So with just 11 days to go before the first champs race there are 169 juniors registered to take take part in this years U13 -19 champs under the new elligibility rule.
Last year 387 kids took part across the champs in the equivalent age groups.
Well done. Whoever pushed this ridiculous rule through has certainly made junior fell running a more inclusive sport thats open to everyone with the minimum of fuss.
