Up until a few years ago these races were run as a road race that took place on the morning of the Stroud half marathon; this year we are trialing a cross country version with the hope that it will be an annual event to include the children in the festivities of the Half Marathon.
The race will be using the lower sports field at Marling School, GL54HE with either 1 or 2 laps depending upon the race.
There will be 3 races taking place between 09:15 and 09:45 on Sunday 27th October whilst the Half Marathon takes place.
U13 - 09:15 - Silver Mile Race 1 - 35 places
It has taken some time but the Club has now approved our new VMLM club ballot process for 2019.
The draw for the two club places will take place on Tuesday 29th October at 18:05 before the club run.
Sunday saw the cross country season return and what a contrast from 12 months ago when the first meeting was dry and nearly 20C . A wet murky drive to Katherine Lady Berkley School and a soggy playing field, a muddy shin deep water filled crossing plus flying tent soon told us what was in store.
If any Club members have an interesting story about their training, motivation or cause to publicise please email race director Steve Elliott (steve@immortalsport.com). These will be going out in the race week press release, so please get them to Steve by Thursday 17th October.
