To put it simply - I think we can write-off 2021 for fell races.
I personally think we'll get at least some races in... it seems we'll be in a better situation this summer than last... and there were races going on last year...
Whether we'll get proper mass starts i'm more sceptical, but i can't see any reason for some races not being ran along same lines as they were last year.
Possibly setting myself up for disappointment, of course, but if gyms etc are going to be reopening, then i see no reason why we won't have some form of racing (assuming the recovery in the country continues).

I could see races being held towards the end of August, but really can't see anything sooner being a goer. I still have a Saunders MM entry from last year but can't see it happening. Hopefully the LDMT will be run (it's not a mass start) but I could see it's "older" organisers and marshals being somewhat reserved in organising it.
So for me it's get over a child inflicted injury and build mileage for BGR in 2022.
Woooo best news for a while! Thanks Hank! It’s a truly wonderful event!
I think that following the relatively optimistic news coming out of the government, its now time for EA/UKA to earn their crust and provide some meaningful guidance in relation to the rest of 2021 from a racing point of view...
Old County Tops cancelled until next year.
