The FRA page states this race is entry on day.... is this correct?
I can't find anything to indicate pre-entry is required, but i'd not be too pleased to drive up from Cov next Saturday and find I couldn't run...!!

There is a discussion on the Pennine Facebook page asking the same question. It seems to be that it is pay on the day.
A quick scan of their Facebook page and it does appear it was ‘pay on the day only’ last year...

I paid on the day last year
It's one of our club championship races just looked on our site and it's not down as pre entry I'm going to be doing it . I can make enquiries with some of our members if it's pre entry I'll post it up
Hopefully pay on the day as I will be making a weekend of it.
