    Junior Championship Series

    How about making the junior championship's consist of more races? Make it more interesting.

    i have some complaints about bofras. fair enough they are traditional but for a lot of us travelling 100 miles + is a long way for a 1 mile race. Im in favour of the age distance limits being increased to 10 miles u/18 8 miles u/16, 6 miles u/14, 3 miles u/12 2 miles u/10, 1 mile u/8. Longer, nmore challenging and better course choices

    thats the point the seniors have loads. its no wonder there is a lack of junior runners with little choice in junior races
