Thanks for the clarification Runrig, at least we can now understand where the largely positive feedback came from.Originally Posted by Runrigg
Unfortunately in the interest of balance, it is mainly those who participated in the May event who would have stumbled upon the request for feedback as they visited the Halifax Harriers web site for the results.
Individuals may participate, but it's clubs who submit entries and put teams together, so how about polling the views of clubs? I will put this suggestion to the event organisers.
As for the snow and ice risk, a few years ago one of the notes to team captains was always "In the event of adverse weather you will be informed by telephone by 6pm on the Saturday evening before, and the race will be run the following Sunday." I'm not sure when this rule ceased to be, but it seemed quite a sensible compromise, and possibly would have suited more of the clubs, team captains, and athletes originally lined up to take part in the December 2010 event.
