Cheers GG & good luck with your coastal training.
Have dealt with Bob and he was very helpful, it was his letter last year that acknowledged my deferral, just cant remember the procedure for this year cos I still need to pay £5 for my deferred place. The contacts this year are Lynn & Teresa.

BanjoBax, I would try and get this sorted out before Monday February 4th when the pandemonium of this year's entry takes place as presumably the organiser's e-mail and phone will be more chaotic from then on.

When planning your races, watch out for these clashes.
CLASH 1 April 21st
This year the Neurocare Head Start (in Rother Valley Country Park near Sheffield) is to include a 10K as well as a 5K. Unfortunately this event seems to be one year later this year and so it clashes with the date of the Sheffield Lord Mayor's 10K.
CLASH 2 May 19th
The Yorkshire 10K Run (Newby Hall, Ripon) is on the same day as the date for the Ripon 10M. The Yorkshire 10K Run has been held on this weekend for years.
CLASH 3 October 20th
The organisers of the new Yorkshire Marathon have their race on the same day as the Bridlington Half (which includes the Yorkshire Vets Half Marathon Championships). The Bridlington Half always takes place on this particular weekend.

Thanks for this Barry. Clash 2 is interesting, some races seemed to have moved. I always used to do the Ripon 10m followed by the Winderemere marathon the weekend after. I haven't been able to do the Pier to Pier for years as it clashes with Windermere. This year the Pier to Pier is the week before Windermere but the Ripon 10m now clashes with Windermere

Whoops. Excuse my "one year later this year" in Clash 1. I guess that should be "one week later this year".

Trail marathonsthat may be of interest.
Hardmoors 26.2 Osmotherley Trail Marathon Sunday 17th February
Hardmoors 26.2 Wainstones Trail Marathon Sunday 14th April (Please note incorrect date advertised on flyer)
Hardmoors 26.2 Rosedale Trail Marathon Sunday 16th June
Hardmoors 26.2 Saltburn Trail Marathon Sunday 11th August

Only Osmotherley has a set course at the moment but i guessing all will be fairly tough if Os is anythng to go by. At least 5000ft ascent !
