TODAYS RUNNER XC
Out of all the cross country events, the Todays Runner series offer the best courses and they can be quite demanding! There are normally 6 races starting in October and finishing in March. All runners must wear a club vest. All races start at 11am.
The guideline for speed is 5:40 minute mile pace for men and 6:15 minute mile pace for women.
| Men | Women | |
| 5m | 28.20 | 31.15 |
| 10k | 35.13 | 38.50 |
| 10m | 56.40 | 62.30 |
Any runner who achieves this pace over a measured distance of 5 miles or over during the 12 months prior to the first race is ineligible. A team to comprise the first 5 scoring men and first 3 scoring women.
Todays Runner races are organised by Glen Street and are a very relaxed affair with the speedy runners being banned!! Glen can be contacted by or by telephoning him on 01329 845330.
