The Northern Athletics 6/12 Stage Road Relays are scheduled to be held on March 27th at Birkenhead. This is one most prestigious running events in the road calendar and it is an excellent event at which to kickstart your spring season of road running. The event is open to seniors aged 18 + with the men’s team(s) consisting of 12 runners and the women’s 6. Some of the best athletes from the North will be competing which ensures a high standard of competition for all athletes involved.
We have recent success at the Northern Cross-Country Championships where the Ladies team finished 4th and as a result of this we are aiming to be competitive in both the ladies and men’s races. However we are keen to enter more than one team for each event. First claim club members, of all abilities, are invited to express an interest in taking part in this fantastic event by emailing the clubs road running captains Emma Essex Crosby and Simon Collins at roadrunning@prestonharriers.co.uk by March 6th to ensure that the club has plenty of time organise the teams.
