Shelf Moor

Please note I am making a change to the start time of the Ladies race.

It will now start 15 minutes later at 11:15.

The reason for this change is to prevent the risk of disrupting the Ladies Race as the leading women come off the Lightside Descent. If we start the race at 11:00 the leading women will be coming off the final descent into a pack of 200 people waiting to start the Mens race. By delaying the start by 15 minutes the Men's Race will have started and the disruption prevented.

I will be posting a few more details later today or tomorrow.

Many thanks

STL

I still don't think Olivia will be able to get back from Slovenia in time!

STL - Presumably the men's registration will stay open until the men's race starts - just in case I don't make it there, or find somewhere to park, by the time that the women's race starts?

The registration will stay open, probably until about 11:50. It is a 10 minute trot to the race start from registration. I will posting some extra details about parking options here later today.

Thanks IDP. :) I'm not counting chickens yet.

I was planning to have a super 4 weeks of training running up to this race, but I missed about 5 days with some virus. No hills :eek: I'll watch out for you on the flat bits then. ;)

A few extra details,

There is a new map on the Glossopdale Harriers web site to help people find us. Directions will be posted from the A57.

Parking:

Please do not park in Hope St outside the hut. The road is narrow and we do not want to upset the locals. Firth Rixon have kindly let us use the car park at the start of Shepley Street, which has space for 40-50 cars. There is also roadside paeking on Shepley Street for about 30 cars. Additional street parking is available on Manor Park road opposite the entrance to the park. Manor Park also has a car park on Corn St(50-60 cars), 10 mins walk to registration. Please car share if possible.

Please do not use the field beyond the start gate to warm up. The landowner has asked us to stay to the official footpath. John4of5 will be at the gate as an enforcer.

Thanks

STL

Just picked up the main prizes and the guy has done a brilliant job again.

I had a little run across the Shelf Moor section of the course yesterday evening, it is drying out nicely, should make for a fast race tomorrow.
