The LWAC summer 5k series is still happening, yes. It's on Wednesdays, as are most races in this fine county over the summer - I'm fresh back from our Croxby Crawl, for instance.

I have'nt run it since 85, used to consist of a half, a 10 mile, 10 k and a quarter marathon iirc, just wondering if it still existed in that format ?

That's quite an interesting concept- something for everyone. I've not heard about it.

Croxbies are 3x 4.44 milers, 2 x 8.88 milers and 1 x 13.1 miler, one race every month, but although historic records are kept and there's an all-time ranking, there's no prizes for best performances in the whole series.

The Wolds Dash series in Louth does award prizes for multiple races in the series - it's five (?) off-road races of varying cross-country style distances. I've not got round to running one of those yet, though.

Hey, super stuff Minardi. I was starting to get scared that this was going to be a hugely, horribly expensive mistake.

Cayke is, of course, most welcome. I'm sure we can find somewhere for a "social" afterwards as well - although I notice that there are a few abstainers amongst our number. As, usually, am I...

Will try really hard to make this, if I'm back in Horncastle by 2:00pm from holiday it should be possible. Thanks to Minardi for the FB invite
