They also have a 10 mile race happening on the same day (Draycote is about 5 miles round, so the 10 is two laps). I was thinking it might be nice to have a bit of a social at The Dun Cow pub in nearby Dunchurch (just a mile or so down the road from DW). We've had plenty of Fetch meet-ups there before now, and the food is decent. If you're up for it, here are the links to the race entry: 20: theraceorganiser.com 10: theraceorganiser.com Leave a comment and follow this thread if you're thinking about it

Oranj Aug 2018 9:35pm, 13 Aug 2018 1,007 posts	0 Oranj I have also bunged an entry in for the 20, as prep for Abingdon M. Although, obviously, it's all subject to my amazing ability to get injured in the week or two prior to a big event. This year I've adopted a more relaxed devil-may-care approach to my running and will be hoping this pays off. Fetchpoint flowers count as training, right? Fingers crossed.
