Unfortunately its getting pricey.. over here in the states £80-130 isn't uncommon and there's very few races under $30...Originally Posted by Mark Smith
It is pricey, and I'll explore that with the ROs if i get a chance.
Surely the £1 for the jubilee plunge has to be the best bargain in fell running! £4 is a steal as well for the clywdian trots - really looking forward to them this year.
I'll let you know how it goes WH
Its a joke.. I don't mind £30 for a marathon or the odd major race but this price is just incredible.. Compare that with races like the Trunce
The only way to stop it is not support them and support the value for money races. I've done a few I thought were too expensive so won't do again. For example £5 to run 4 laps of the cricket pitches at that deeside grand prix.. an absolute classic of a race...
I don't see how a race is someone's turf though... The more race organisers the more sustainable a sport will be.
