Run The Moors Fell Races 2010



Exciting news on the fell running front as our club has been accepted into the Run The Moors Grand Prix in 2010.


This is a fell race league that includes, Rochdale Harriers, Rossendale Harriers, Middleton Harriers, Saddleworth Runners, Radcliffe AC and now A&T.

The Grand Prix consists of local races, usually in the Rossendale/Rochdale areas some of which we regularly compete in anyway. 5 races will count from 7 for scoring purposes.

This event will give the fell season a more competitive edge for the more serious runners amongst us and will mean a bit of fun for those who just want a run out or to try fell running for the first time.

Fell races are very friendly events with a great atmosphere and are very cheap to enter. People of all ages and capabilities enter them. They get you out in the local hills and leave you with a great sense of achievement. They also usually end with a quick scoop in the local pub.

I will update the blog when the race details are known and please keep an eye on the Fell Section page as I intend to update it regularly with fell running info.

As always, if anyone is interested in giving it a go next year, give me or Mark Ruscoe a shout
All the best,

Paul Jackson
