Midlands Cross Country Meet is Cancelled

Due to the appauling flooding situation we have taken the decision not to travel to the Midlands Event tonight.


After taking advice from the Environment Agency and the police we feel it is wise not to be travelling. Many of our County's areas are badly affected by floods and there are numerous school and road closures across the region. In addition the weather over the next 24hrs is expected to bring increasing levels of rain which will only make the travel situation across Cumbria more dangerous.


The decision to cancel is not one that has been taken lightly. We always want to race when ever possible but safety must taken precidence on this occasion.


We look forward to seeing you run at the County Championships in January and hope you stay safe of this most difficult weekend.
