Right good do this. Free entry, loads of familiar faces and a bar of chocolate for finishing. Doesn't get much better than that. I'll be in Lakes so will miss it :(

Thinking about taking my 9 year old lad over to do the junior race. Do they have races for all junior age groups?
Just checked with organiser;Quote:

Cheers FJ. He just loves being out in the mud!
Looks like we might be getting some snow although I doubt that we will have a problem with the race going ahead. Bring full body cover though, we will be insisting that you wear or carry a cag at the very least.
Under 18s and under 16s do the main race at 6.45
The other junior age groups go soon after the seniors. Two race distances out and back. Under 14s do the longer route, Under 11s turn back sooner.
Bring some warm clothes for your children, could be a wet cold night !

I was thinking of doing this....i'm not too sure now. Are there really 22 stiles?????Quote:

If you're really going for it it's possible to vault a couple of them :eek:Quote:

I've looked at my OS of the area. Can see Liver Hill and the Sports Centre, but there apear to be loads of tracks between the two.
I take it isn't a choose your own route as others mention 11 styles out and back.
Flagged all the way, but this will help.Quote:

Well that was very wet, very muddy, and very enjoyable.:D
Thanks to all the organisers.
Good turnout considering the weather. 194 altogether including 53 juniors.
Results are now up on our club website and have been sent to Brett for inclusion on the Fra website.
This race is a memorial race for Harry Aspinall who was a founder member of Rossendale Harriers and a mighty fine fell runner.
Anyone got a map for Liverhill race ??? :confused:
Is this any use to you? http://www.racemaps.org.uk/liverhill2006.htm
First evening race after the clocks change. A popular race,out and back route, no entry fee and no prizes. 6.45 pm start prompt so that everyone gets back in the daylight.
Junior races set off soon after the seniors, 2 race distances under 14s and under 11s but all age groups.
Race run in honour of founder club member Harry Aspinall
Gosh........dunt time fly....only seems 12 mounths since the last Liver hill romp. Bit dry over that way at the mo. plenty of time for rain though.
Sorry no pie and peas we havnt done that for yearsQuote:
