My next is the White Star Run Jurassic Half in September. I was due to run it last year but it was cancelled because of a storm. I’m not at all confident that we will be running any time this year. But maybe time trials like in orienteering are a chance to do something earlier?

Well, we're in "phase 1" of return to orienteering - basically we've been asked to promote our Permanent Orienteering courses (POCs) in our areas and do some "virtual" orienteering alongside some bits and pieces: britishorienteering.org.uk As soon as small group gatherings are allowed, we'll be able to start some form of "proper" event Check out your local orienteering club's website: britishorienteering.org.uk Dill - if you're where I think you are, then you've got Bristol Orienteering club on your doorstep who are very active on social media and I'm sure will be doing something. North Gloucs OC which might be a bit further away are very active with MapRun - which is a form of "virtual" orienteering where you use a smartphone to track your course. I think it can use the phone to show the map too. I've not used it yet. |

Next event not cancelled (yet) is a 10 mile race on 23rd August, which should have happened in February but fell foul of Storm Dennis. Only a low key local thing, but can’t see it happening. A few more small local ones booked in August/September, not hopeful for those, next big thing - not for me as once was enough - but Mr Jenny is supposed to be doing Snowdonia in October. I would love that to go ahead for his sake, but really can’t see it. Feeling pretty glum as I can see us not being allowed to race next year either. |

Ooh thanks fozzy, might look into that! I got really into adventure racing thanks to McG but that’s obviously been cancelled too

The one I have entered is the Brighton Marathon in September. If races can restart in July, I might consider the Caterham Rotary Half-Marathon.

Fleecy, you're always welcome on the dark side of running.  (quite literally when it comes to night orienteering...or parts of the lake district when the forest gets thick and low vis!) Think you're in Thames Valley OC territory (they've got a very active FB page apparently) or Southern Navigators, but Guildford (because it's *special*) also has it's own club. |

Who knows? Apparently the Cathedral to Castle 10miler is now 27th September. We'll see if it happens!

We've got our club race in November and somebody has already asked about getting an entry. Errr no, we haven't even been in touch with the number and timing people yet as the likelihood of it going ahead is miniscule. In that vein I've got no actual events booked as seems pretty pointless right now. |
