Hi there

I am Head of a girls' primary school in London and an FRA member and sometime Ambleside resident.

I wondered if anyone could advise me of an appropriate race I could take the fastest Year 5 and 6 girls to over the Summer (term-time or holiday), as an introduction to fell running and racing? I see that the Junior Championships start from Year 7 so that's out.

I have a particularly strong set of Year 5 girls and would love to give them exposure to the wonders of junior fell. Of course, distance is rather a challenge. Clearly the larger the event, the more we can justify the journey.

Any advice much appreciated.

Henry
