Road Championship 2014/2015

[jen]

We are in the process of putting together the road championship for next season - we are awaiting the cross country dates before finalising but I thought it would be useful to post the 1st two for your diaries:

Ellesmere 10k 24th August 2014, 11am. Its a good one to bring your family to, as the mere is lovely. The race is varied and friendly - definitely recommended. Details at www.active.com/ellesmere-shropshire/running/distance-running-races/ellesmere-10k-2014

Sutton 6 10k Sunday 21st September 2014, 11:00 am. Local! www.westcheshireac.co.uk/roadracing/Sutton6

Both fill up, so I suggest entering soon.

Please see below provisional dates for the club's road championship:

Ellesmere 10k - 24th August 2014, 11am.
Sutton 6 10k - Sunday 21st September 2014
Borders League - Dec 7th Tattenhall, Chester Tri
Four Villages Half Marathon Sunday 18th January
Nick Beer Memorial 10K Road Race (around Great Orme) – Sunday 8th February 2015 (note: XC on Saturday)
Borders League - March 8th, Caernarfon
Ironbridge Half - End March / beginning April (TBC)
Tattenhall Runners Closed 5k - End March / beginning April (TBC)

I've swapped in Helsby (4 villages) as Wrexham Half has all changed - now from town centre - and date clashes with a borders league race. Please let me know any comments within a week then we will finalise.

Finalised races for Road Championship are now fixed as follows:

Ellesmere 10k - 24th August 2014, 11am.
Sutton 6 10k - Sunday 21st September 2014
Borders League - Dec 7th Tattenhall, Chester Tri
Four Villages Half Marathon Sunday 18th January
Nick Beer Memorial 10K Road Race (around Great Orme) – Sunday 8th February 2015 (note: XC on Saturday)
Borders League - March 8th, Caernarfon
Ironbridge Half - End March / beginning April (TBC)
Tattenhall Runners Closed 5k - End March / beginning April (TBC)

As previously, a runners best 4 results (ranked against other Tattenhall competitors) in the 7 races will count for the championship.

You can take the races as seriously or otherwise as you like. The more the merrier though, whatever your speed! As usual we generally have a friendly cup of tea and piece of cake afterwards if you need any more incentive!

Steve had suggested changing the Great Orme10k, but that date clashes with a fell race, so we will stick to the above list.
