2nd Monthly Grand Prix of 2020
(Licence applied for, run under UKA rules)
Sunday 19th April at 10.30 a.m., Neiley Fields, Honley, HD9 6QT
Promoted by Holmfirth Harriers
This is the same course as last year. It is mainly on good tracks and field paths with shorter road sections than previous routes. Trail or fell shoes will be needed in wet conditions but in dry conditions (if you can remember what they are!) runners could use road shoes. The course is just less than 6 miles (approx. 9.75K) and climbs gradually to the same high point as previous years (290m in total). £5.00 entry on the day (£1.00 goes to host club).
Venue: Neiley Fields, Honley
Facilities: Parking at Holmfirth Harriers Clubhouse and on Gynn Lane. Please follow directions of marshals. Car share if possible.
Changing rooms and showers, toilet facilities and light refreshments after the race (Note: We will be following YVAA Committee recommendations and keeping refreshments simple – probably tea / coffee and a piece of cake or similar). Start just outside Clubhouse.
