LOL! too late... I just posted on the Castle Combe thread!
location is here guys/gals... SN14 7EY - Google Maps
Would be a good event date wise I think, just depends on how many people would be available and willing to travel... I'd be willing to give a lift to up to 3 people from my area, so if anyone was coming from further afield and wanted to break up their journey by part driving/part passengering I'd be happy to take them.

Nowhere will be good for everyone. It is good for motorways and there should be b&bs close if anyone wants to stay. I hope it works for most.

As an addition to this. What makes a running club?
Most races offer a discount if you are affiliated to a club. I, like many others am not. Could we make Runnersforum an online running club. That way we can enter as affiliated and the forum is advertised on every entry list.
Just a thought.

the reason affilliated clubs recieve a discount is because they have to pay membership to UK Athletics, or whatever the governing body each for each club member... once that person is an affilliated member, they are insured... the extra £2 an unaffilliated runner pays is purely for insurace... it's something that I guess could potentially be organised, but it would involve a lot of work/legal stuff!
try uknetrunners if you fancy joining an online club to recieve the £2 off entry fees
Hold your horses with entering this event though, I will be contacting the race organiser to see if there's anything we can do. Please don't hold your breath though!

Cheers Richard. I just wondered as it would add to the sites community feel. Not so much as to save a couple of quid.
Good news Trinity
