Does anyone know what distances are going to be on offer?
Thinking of seeing if my six year old is interested in having a go. I vaguely remember that the shortest race was just a lap of the field that the seniors finish in.
Any ideas?

Why not email or ring the race orgainiser and ask him?? :rolleyes:
His details are in the fra calendar and listed on race page on this website.
As in http://www.fellrunner.org.uk/2010races.htm#apr

Yeah, big thanks for that Kath, really constructive.Quote:

Thanks Felljunior; the FRA guidance pretty much answers my question
Is it me or is there just a hint of sarcasm in this response
I always thought that you were one of the more perceptive ones on this forum:cool:Quote:

Bet you can't guess :cool:
In that case I think you'll find that no-one will be willing to offer you any help whatsoever. Get of your arse and and find it out for yourself

Easy Tiger, think you're taking it all a bit too seriously now. Don't be getting all lathered up over a bit of forum banter; how will you cope in the real world?;)
And the answer to the first question was???:confused:

Quick back paddle as hard as you can and chuck out an insult or two just to throw folk of the scent. Nice try

Very enjoyable junior races, we will hopefully be going again this year.
Could I grab a lift over if you are going Jane??Quote:

Can I emphasise again that AW Wa! is on-line entry only, no EOD.
Please pass this info on.
5000 posts....tis true....around 4900 of them will most likely be uselessQuote:
