A classic Club race, later in the year due to a combination of the A57 being closed and the RO needing to get a Bob out the way.
There will be a group outing for those wanting to explore the route at a more social pace.
Nights are getting shorter, so bring a head torch in addition to usual kit.
6.30 – Warts, steady runners and the group outing. The RO probably won’t be there on time.
6.45 – Rest of the pack.
