p.s. ta for feedback on Icebugs. Might be hard to get hold of a pair, though you can buy them direct from the manufacturer's website. Not cheap though :-(

I was only thinking earlier tonight that was likely. A week before the start of Lockdown 1 last year, so it's cancellation rather hammers home how long this has been going on ☹️ On top of the general situation being based out of a school was never going help.

Sadly inevitable

Brett did brilliantly last year to put it on just prior to lockdown as you say ff

I’m a bit sad being probably the fittest I’ve been in seven years and looking forward to a run out this year

He did DT and the longer it goes on the more and more grateful I am that he gave me at least one race last year before everything went to pot. Shame you won't get to run this year ☹️

That's a shame, but not that surprising.

Pendle in a Day has just moved to early April and just maybe, being a small, low-key event, it might get to go ahead. Great little trail ultra. They were offering places to the waiting list just recently...

I doubt very much of anything will happen until May/June at the earliest.

I'm slightly optimistic that our club race will go ahead in June.

(And as DT and NE will tell you, it's brilliant ;-) !)

As long as races are back by end of July I'll be happy. I think that's far from a given.

I think we'll put at least one of our races on this year, as 2 years without any income to the club isn't ideal.

We only really have the 2 races and our support at the Abbey Dash that brings us any income (and it's not excessive!)

I hope that the Abbey Dash will happen too this year.
