We’ve booked the racing track at Darley Moor for some new chip timed 3k and 5k distance races and had the courses measured and certified. The runs take place on the track itself which should mean some very quick times which can be accepted as road race times for Power of 10 rankings.
For these new races we're looking for hard, fast runs creating great competition between runners and clubs, as well as a bit of fun for those less worried about a fast time.
We are aiming at an inclusive atmosphere akin to cross country and fell race series days with clubs and runners of all abilities welcome to take part. There is plenty of room at the venue for parking and club gazebos and it’s spectator friendly too. We’re offering free camping (basic!) on request, at the venue for the night before the races and there will be a catering truck there on race day.
These races are part of our Weekend of Sport at Darley which also includes Junior and Senior duathlon days. W
