Mercia are posting updates on their website as depending on tonights weather there maybe some doubt over Titterstone Clee on Saturday. The problem is with access on the lanes around the start. http://www.merciafellrunners.org.uk/

Yes , I've seen the web site .
I was lucky enough to fly over Titterstone and the valleys today and all the roads were clear , but , the weather forcast isn't looking too good for tommorow . If the roads get blocked Titters I'm sure will be off . Roads to church strettton are all main roads though so it would have to be really bad for that one not to go ahead .
Really looking forward to it as well . Been off the booze for at least five days and everything .
If you can fly I don't suppose the snow will be a problem for you !:p

However , my running style could hardly be described as "flying" . More like drunken runner .
In my experience, ask a layperson where Shropshire is and they wont know. There then follows a conversation like "somewhere in between Birmingham and Wales". This isolation serves us well.Quote:

Weather forecast is sleet & snow for the Shropshire Hills this weekend but check the Mercia site for updates. Shame I cant run this one (injured again - see the 'falling' thread) but hope its a great run.
Anyone got any latest on these races ? No update on the Mercia site yet.
Sorry folks, just noticed the read more tag on Mercia's weather warning update. Looks like Titterstone is on although freezing temperatures overnight might make parking an issue with icy roads around the start.
Just read Mercia site . Looks good for tommorow and Sunday .
Fantastic ! :)
A hard week means not going down for the Clee race, though sounds like it will be fun:eek:. Just off to Worcester so see some of you on Sunday in church Stretton.
