Just a reminder that our summer handicap race is on Tuesday 23rd July. This is a circular off road route or about 5 miles around Eccup Reservoir and across fields towards the Harewood estate. Meet at the lodge at the bottom of Goodrick Lane to get your handicap time at 6:30pm for a 6:45pm start. Join us afterwards at the Lord Darcy pub to celebrate the club’s 37th birthday. If you can’t run but would be able to marshal, please let me know. We still need a few more people to ensure the event goes smoothly.
