I’ve been having a dig trying to find out what’s happening with this race since I’d not heard any whisper of it. Nicetri took it on from Riverside Runners in, I think, 2017. Nicetri events have been taken over by Active Training World since the last race in 2019. I’ve searched ATW’s event list and whilst I can find St Neots tri series, which was also previously run by Nicetri, I can find no mention of St Neots half. I’ve dropped them an enquiring email to see if they have any definite plans for it, but think this lovely half is possibly now defunct

Cerrertonia Jul 2021 1:24pm, 4 Jul 2021 14,224 posts	Quote Pin Cerrertonia I would've thought that a race which had regularly attracted several thousand runners for many years (and sold out many times) would be commercially worth sticking with, although I suppose getting marshals is more difficult/expensive for a non-charity/school or non running club event.

Just received this reply from ATW “This race is still being organised by Riverside Runners as far as we are aware- it was not included in the acquisition of Nice Tri.” I’ve replied to tell them that Riverside haven’t been involved since 2018 (ish) which was when Nicetri took it on, but it looks very much like it’s fallen by the wayside

I should think if ATW wanted the race and could get it up and running they would be welcome to it lots of fingers crossed
