East Farm Cross Country Series
A closed event for Poole Runners only
We are in the process of organising a three race series of events at East Farm. Preliminary information is below, but please note this is subject to change depending on COVID regulations.
The race dates are: Sunday 17th Jan, Sunday 21st Feb and Sunday 21st March.
It’s anticipated that mass starts will not be allowed and athletes will be allowed to be set off in small groups. If allowed by UKA, maybe runners starting in sets of five, fastest first to minimise overtaking.
On each race day, the current thinking is that there will be two start times one 10am and one 12 noon. This is to lower the number of runners on site at any one time.
The event will consist of a 5k race plus an accompanying 2k race for juniors aged 8 to 12.
5k route: 13 – 14, 15 -17, 18-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45 -49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79
2k route: 8 to 10 and 11 to 12
All ages will be as of 1st January 2021 and to remain the same through the series.
Route will be farmland and tracks. Could well be muddy.
