Always look forward to the nationals in Falkirk as it's my home run and less than a 2m warmup to the start from my house!!:)

Parliament Hill proper bonkers mud fast - more survival than racing. A must.

I don't think people should be put off by the standard of the National being "too high", it isn't really - you do get all sorts of runners there. If you accidentally qualify for the intercounties then thats the time to brick it. I've done done the County /Midlands/ National XC for the past few years and I'm at the back of the field. However I still see the folks in our XC leagues that I battle with every Saturday so that is where my triumphs come from seeing if I can beat them in the National. It's a good experience, I think more people should give it a go
