2013 Junior Do Sat 20th July
Junior Do
As ever, we look to celebrate the years Championship with a get together for all those who took part (including U8s and U10s) and award the years Championship Trophies. As last year, this years do will be kindly hosted by Rossendale Harriers at Marl Pits, (Newchurch Road, Rawtenstall, Lancashire BB4 6DF) on Saturday 20th July.
Again it will have a training camp feel and be about –
- Having some fun and getting to know other runners a bit better
- Have a coaching/training session with an FRA coach
- A presentation from a top runner
- Learning and practising some new skills (vital for running on the mountains & fells)
- Presentation of 2013 FRA English Junior Championship trophies, collect t-shirts & hoody’s

Bum bags
These are an increasingly essential piece of kit for Fell Running. When packing for a race, putting a bum bag with a waterproof top in a kit bag should become standard for junior fell runners, like shin pads for a football match or spikes for a track race.
To that end, the FRA have subsidised a special deal with Pete Bland Sports for bum bags and these will be available at the junior do.
Normally £25 RRP reduced to £5 on offer to juniors who have participated in a Championship race. See me on the day.
Cheers
Duncan
