In light of the announcements made today, it seems we might get some form of cross-country season over the winter.

I just can't see how it can run as a bona-fide race though, without mass starts... certainly not in our local league where you have 300 runners... let alone something like the nationals.

It's a different kettle of fish to the fells where you can often find yourself time-trialling, even in a popular race. And different again to the roads where it is only really times that matter.

Lets hope something feasible does get sorted.
