Boggart Hole Clough : Manchester Area XC League : Race Four, Sunday 13th January
Fourth race in the five race series…A time when results become even more important with only the decider @ Woodbank Pk to come. The day started bright and sunny although a cold crispness in the air…but underfooot mud and more mud. Not a road runners course but a traditionalists XC…
Greater Manchester Cross Country Championships
Woodbank Park is a great venue for cross country and the mud was extreme. No less than 4 laps of a variation on the usual course made for a tough event. The downhill section was knee deep in slop and a new uphill line was so steep that most of us were…

Given recent weather was expecting head winds & torrential rain, as it happened neither occured; just a slight dampness in the air. Race well attended;…
