Flower Scar – No 2 in the Club Fell Champs and also the first English Fell Championship Race. As a result if filled very quickly and entries are now on a waiting list. We have a fair number of entries, and a few on the waiting list, but it’s always good to have more people there. So if you haven’t entered or joined the waiting list do so now – you still have a chance of a place and you don’t need to pay until you accept an offer of a place (if someone drops out and they do).
If you missed entry for this one or the date doesn’t work for you – don’t worry there are still plenty of races to earn points for the Fell Championship or simply to join in a fell race with fellow club members.
Kit? Mandatory for AM races – and the Organiser is at liberty to ask for more kit to be worn or carried if conditions are bad which they could be on Pennine moors in March. Last time I ran Flower Scar there was snow on the ground and more snow falling.

Details : Start 11:00 at Todmorden Cricket Club, Centre Vale, OL14 7BS
Minimum age: 18
Entries : £10 or £12. https://www.sientries.co.uk/event.php?elid=Y&event_id=12650
Pre-entry. Entries now on a Waiting List (still a chance of a place, so do join the Waiting List)
Map – see map in header or attached file

We already have a number of runners entered and it would be great to see more. Any queries – contact Becky, Paul or Andy as below.
Full details of the Club Fell Champs are in the Fell section under Disciplines. All the races are run under Fell Runners Association rules – see Requirements for Runners on https://www.fellrunner.org.uk/documents.php. Assume you need full kit and note that electronic / GPS navigation aids are not allowed in races.
If you are new to the fells but would like to give it a go we can help with advice, kit, maps etc. There is an Introduction to Fell Running which may answer some of your queries, on Team App under Disciplines : https://bingleyharriers.teamapp.com/clubs/567035/teams/977224?_detail=v1
I would like as many people to join in as possible even if you can’t manage 6 events to score.

We are also targeting teams at the English Fell Champs races and relay teams for Calderdale Way (Sun 19 May), the Bradford Millenium Way (Sun 9 Jun) and the October Fell Relays in the Lakes – Hodgson Brothers Mountain Relay (Sat 5 Oct) and the British Fell Relay (Sat 19 Oct). Even if you are new to the fells we can help you build your fell skills and experience so you are ‘ready to relay’, and October comes around surprisingly quickly ;-).

Get in touch with the Fell Team Managers Becky Weight (beckyweight@btinternet.com), Paul Crabtree (paulcrabtree67@yahoo.com), or Andy Jebb (andrewjebb2@gmail.com) if you are interested or to chat about what would be good for you, or pick up with some of the regular fell runners on our training sessions.
