Nope Rach, I was thinking of doing London champs but decided against it. Plenty from our club will be turning out for Norfolk and Suffolk though.

I will be at PH for Southerns though.

Xmas pudding 5 mile dash for me today just outside Battle - nasty steepish XC hill we had to do twice - felt like it was a mile long!! lots of people with very white trainers at the start - relieved I had my trusty brown ones on!

just arranged my entry for the nationals - you don't need to do the county and regionals this year to get in. entries have to be by jan 7th

it's at alton towers

download an entry form for your club if they haven't arranged it from

englishcrosscountry.co.uk

it contains details about eligibility etc.

When buying XC spikes, is it true that you should opt for half a size smaller than your road running shoes? Also, is there a standard shoe or are there different types for high/normal arched feet? Any advice would be appreciated!

ha.. :-)

no, but I need them as soon as possible and my only feasible option is buying online!? If I wait it would mean running my next XC in road trainers but after my last race, I don't fancy that option!
