Entries for Edale Skyline are due to open on Saturday, 1st February. It’s an English Championship race this year and so will fill up rapidly.
 
More importantly, Mark Jones is looking for volunteers without whom the race cannot take place. Volunteering duties include helping out at a checkpoint, in race control, sweeping, or taking care of the car parking before the race. We will also need first aiders on the day, so if you have taken part in a club organised FRA First Aid course please consider volunteering for this. The volunteering form is here.
