    Carding Mill Canter 2018

    from the RO

    POSTPONEMENT OF CARDING MILL CANTER

    I have regrettably reached the decision to postpone the Carding Mill Canter.
    I have wrestled at length over this but have taken the decision on the basis of advice I’ve received,
    and on a number of factors which I’ll summarise below;


    • The weather forecast says we are still due another 10 hours plus of heavy snow between now and the race.
    • The parking areas (both school and CMV) are inaccessible.
    • The course is already impassable in places.
    • There have been 'wise' public comments from respected sources on previous social media posts about exercising caution.
    • The NT are closing all facilities in the Valley today and tomorrow.
    • The NT have expressed a desire that we exercise caution (and not run the race).


    And most importantly,
    • I have a duty of care to all runners and marshals.



    WE WILL RESCHEDULE FOR LATER IN THE YEAR.
    SORRY AGAIN TO HAVE TO TAKE THIS DECISION.
    ....it's all downhill from here.

    Is a shame for everyone looking forward to it, and for the organisers. (although for me it's a blessing as i'll hopefully be able to run in the re-scheduled race). But completely understandable.

    I'm hoping a similar fate does not befall the Edale Skyline next weekend...
