Local Fell Race Saturday 19th November
I know many will be doing the Brampton-Carlisle race this coming Saturday, however, CFR have organised a 'low-key' fell race for local clubs. The route will be on Sale fell, fully flagged and is described as 'easy'. Their is a team prize up for grabs based on a points system, so basically the more KAC runners we get the more chance of winning!!! The race starts from the pheasant inn (just off the A66) at 11am. This would be a great little event for any novice fell runners wanting to have a go, and also for you seasoned fell hounds looking for a training race! For more details visit www.c-f-r.org.uk hope to see some of you there.
