Leigh, Leverhulme, or Marl Pits. If you haven't raced red rose before
and don't have a number you must contact me asap and definitely before

Cross Country Update After Race 5
Cross Country Update
Well done to all who raced at Liverpool. Results spreadsheet after race 5 is now updated. Any queries please let me know.
This weekend's race is at a brand new fixture in Todmorden, this is the last of the Red Rose League races so it would be great to have as many runners out as possible. Please see the event page for details.

Just a quick update on our league races. A previous clash of events
meant I couldn’t initially add Wilson Playing Fields - Hyndburn on our
fixtures list, however Mid Lancs have re-scheduled it and it is now
being held on one of our ‘free’ weekends - 8th December!
I’m aware a number of you can’t make some of the next few races due to Christmas parties etc so I’ve decided to include Hyndburn in our race list to give you more opportunity to pick up some points. Plus it’s a cracking course, I’m sure you will enjoy it.
Nothing will change regarding scoring apart from you have more opportunity to race, and your best 7 races will still count – so it’s best if you can get to as many races as you can to try to bag the top points.
I’m not moving any goal posts regarding the loyalty prize and if any member completes 12 races from the now 13 on the list they will still qualify.
Hope that’s fair to everyone and hope to see you racing in the mud soon.
Thanks

Your chip and number for this race is collected on the day - you don't use your normal Mid Lancs number.
I'd advise car sharing if possible as it is a bit of a journey.
Directions by road
From end of M62, turn left onto A5058 (Queens Drive). After approximately ½ mile, go straight over ‘Fiveways’ roundabout continuing on A5058. Continue over next roundabout and through traffic signals. After approximately ¾ mile, A5058 enters Sefton Park and onto its perimeter drive. Continue round the perimeter drive to Croxteth Drive / Aigburth Drive and War Memorial.

VEHICLE PARKING IS ON THE CARRIAGEWAY OF SEFTON PARK’S PERIMETER DRIVE. AS THIS IS A DENSELY POPULATED RESIDENTIAL AREA WE WOULD ASK THAT YOU RESPECT RESIDENTS’ ACCESS AND REFRAIN FROM BLOCKING DRIVEWAYS OR ACCESS INTO RESIDENTS AND ALL OTHER PREMISES IN THE AREA.
I'm still injured, I think I will be out for the rest of the year at least. But I'm hoping to be there on Saturday anyway.
