New AL race Castle Carr this Sunday (4th) - who's coming to the inaugural race?
I'm excited about the birth of a new race, but also a bit nervous since its a club championship race for Todmorden and Bingley and also the Area Fell clubs (Horwich, Rossendale, Saddleworth, etc) - all despite it never having been run before!
Should be a great occasion. :-)
Two things for anyone who's coming:
- don't underestimate this race! It will be tough not just because of the distance and climb, but also some of the testing terrain; there's a mix of good running and rough, pathless moor that will definitely challenge you
- it is mostly not flagged, so you must be reliant on yourself to get you round the route
