larkim Feb 2024 4:22pm, 23 Feb 2024 23,348 posts	Quote Pin larkim Think the parking last year was pretty chaotic too, if memory serves? Though I had a bit of local savvy to help me out. Drier conditions though.

stilldreaming Feb 2024 6:44pm, 23 Feb 2024 1,349 posts	Quote Pin stilldreaming I'd imagine some League races have been cancelled because of the damage that would have been done to parkland etc. I was marshalling at an event a couple of years ago and took some flak from a dog walker who was upset at the mess the runners were making churning up the path through the woodlands. Though I didn't say as much up her, I had to agree 🙁

Curly45 Feb 2024 12:22pm, 26 Feb 2024 4,639 posts	Quote Pin Curly45 Yes I expect so if we are being refunded as it means all entries are null I suppose.
