If not, come on down, the price is right! - sign up to the best 5mile off-road race series in Berkshire of the summer. Entries are now open for the Finch Coasters Woodland 5 series. Set in the beautiful Crowthorne Woods, the 5 and a bit mile course will be run on May 11th, June 8th and July 13th. So if you missed the infamous hill when the ravers struck in December now is your chance to get reacquainted. If you don't know what I'm talking about, but you like a nice off-road run in the summer sun then sign up below! Because we know you all like a bargain, we have an early-bird offer that gives you all three races for the price of 2 (£22 affiliated). Click the link - you know you want to: runnersworld.co.uk CW

Highly recommended to everyone else though. Great mid week summer races I could be persuaded with cake CW. Do Finch need any extra marshalls??
