BOFRA have a lot of races for under 9s
Don't know about junior races in the Peaks though
list of junior races here.
but you have to look for it...
6 years of age min i think but a lot of organisers like encouraging nyounger runners and let them run unofficially.
Hope Wakes has one
Lantern Pike
Some races over Todmorden and Calder Valley as well.
The calder valley ones are well organised with nice medals but i think the hardest race for under 8s is at saddleworth.
Trying to plod up hills every day slightly faster than the day before
Link to FRA Rules. Rule 10 lists the maximum distances for each age group - minimum age 6 on the day (for insurance purposes). This will give an idea of what 'junior novice' is thought to be capable of. Follow Brett's link for a list of races.
Above all else - enjoy
Going downhill fast - until I fell over
Chrome Hill this weekend is a cracking day out (so I'm told) senior and junior races.
I'm gonna get that cwazy gwouse...
