Any rumours regarding races?

Peris for the one-off British Long Champs.
So the assumption is the British Short Champs race will be in England.
I think you can only count on short races for curved balls, the mediums and longs will be familiar. My fingers are crossed for arncliffe gala.
I gather Flower Scar will be a Medium English Champs, with the date changed to be in March rather than Feb

Good. Pennine races always bowl you a googlie or ten. Flower scar has a lot of different challenges packed into one race.Originally Posted by BillJ
Lad's Leap in April.
Think it was inter-counties a few years back.
Races were put up on faceache the other day. Not made it onto the website yet as comms was in the US so didn't have website access. And I forgot to drop them here.

My only comment is that the 27th July is a bit early for the English Championships to conclude.

Uphill trial for me (not that I'll get anywhere remotely near selection)
Hopefully the inter-counties, if we have a team and if I'm selected... although both on the same weekend might be tough.
Fell relays next year in Wharfedale.
