The joy of the great outdoors! No pavement beneath your feet...off road running is definitely good for you both physically and mentally. The events in the Off Road Championship cover a range of surfaces, inclines and views, and if you're sick of having to remortgage your house to enter pan-flat races around industrial estates or deserted B-roads, off-road running might just be your saviour.
We have a number of Off-Road enthusiasts in the club, notably Simone Capponi, Lawrence Eccles and Cristina Puccini who will evangelize on the benefits of not worrying about pace but instead the joy of pure racing across a variety of terrains. The programme for the coming year has been compiled by Andy Keeley based on the recommendations of Penny Lane members. This year the programme has been extended to 20 races. Again you need to complete 5 races to be in with a shout for a trophy but with more races hopefully we will get a more involved. |
