Cross Country Recognition Evening – Thursday 16th March

As is our tradition, we will be holding a small celebration of our achievements in this year’s Inter Club cross country series on Thursday 16th March at 8pm at the West End in Killamarsh.

There will be commemorative medals for everyone who has run (or marshalled) at least 4 events and a small bonus prize for anyone who has run or marshalled in all 5 events.

There will also be trophies for our best scoring male and female runners with the special trophy available for our best performing male and female 1st claim runner.

Some free food will also be available – and of course Ian and Gemma will be on hand to provide liquid refreshments!

We have all worked really hard and there have been some amazing achievements so please do your best to attend and celebrate.

Final XC at Worksop – Sunday 12th March

**Information for THIS Sundays Final XC Race at Worksop**

Start Time is 11am as usual but its about a mile to the start so meet about 10:15 at the venue.

The Worksop Harriers Look forward to welcoming all to finale of the Inter-Club Local XC on March 12th. Please pass on the below info to all attending the event

Parking
As per previous years, please use the extensive length of Retford Road (S80 2QA) to park (considerately!) for the event. Please avoid parking at the small pit top car park which will be used by the marshals and other locals. If there are football matches on there be limited to no parking at Manton Club itself

The Course
The course is the now well known 5.5 mile loop we have used in previous years. Starting off the footpath through Manton pit just off Retford Road (next to Bannatyne Gym S80 2QA) It is 99% the same except a very slight diversion at around 1.5 mile after venturing through the woods due to the path eroding. The course is over hard-packed stoney trails and mud so trail shoes are recommended. The weather is currently predicting to be wet but we are hoping to have the Coleman tent up so if each club could bring a bag for their members kit there will be space to store kit.

Post-Race
The final scores on the doors and presentation of the trophies will be held back at Manton Club (S80 2PU). Sandwiches, snacks and cakes will be provided along with coffee and tea and the bar will be open for those seeking other very reasonably priced refreshments to celebrate surviving another year of XC! The showers should be available for those wishing to make use in the changing rooms at Manton Club but for anyone going up to the club obviously shoes are to remain outside and give yourself a good shake to get rid of any adhered mud before venturing up stairs!

We hope everyone has many great memories of the season so far and thank you to all those who have made the initial four races possibly and we look forward to returning the favour this Sunday!
