Hi all,

Just wanted to plug this new ultra race I'm helping organise.

The race is on Saturday 29th September 2007 and is a scenic 30mile trail race along the canal between Stratford upon Avon and Birmingham.

Also available as a 3 x 10mile relay event.

Further race info is on the site here:

I've run along part of the route before and it can be quite pleasant....wouldn't mind doing the run sometime but not this year I'm afraid.
Good luck to you all.

Hope the entries all worked out OK Ed

Yup it's an impressive time alright... but it was expected... he's local and quick!

It seems likely we'll run it again next year, a few lessons learned behind the scenes.

Entries were good thanks, assuming we have all the cash
