.... are confirmed as per v2 I sent by email on 7 February. Note 5-10 mins to Assembly depending on where you are parked, and 15-20 mins from Assembly to Start. Do not be late.

CSC Walls & Fences clarification

 I have clarification from the organisers.
ALL walls and fences (other than ruined ones) must only be crossed at marked gates / stiles / crossing points. Some, but not all, will be overprinted in purple but ALL (apart from ruined) are subject to the "only use mapped crossing points" restriction.

Whitbarrow Cancelled

 Unfortunately Forestry England have refused us permission to use Whitbarrow for our proposed National event on March 9 so very reluctantly we have had to cancel the event.

Helmshore Street O Wed Jan 22

 Just a heads up about this event which is being organised by Steve Wilson who is a PFO member. The event is both a PFO and an SROC event. It will be pre entry via SI entries and it would be appreciated if as many people as possible do take the option to pre enter. Entry on the day is also available as usual but the fee will be £5 for members and £6 for non members just as a one off for this event.

Heysham night street league

The rescheduled Heysham event took place last evening, in much better weather conditions. Results are available here, and here is RouteGadget for the event.

Event Cancellations

Due to icy conditions, both LOC Tarn Hows night event on Saturday 11 January and Helm Hill Runners Giggleswick race on Sunday 12 January have been cancelled.

Tarn Hows NW night league event has now been rescheduled for Saturday 25 January.

Heysham Street O rescheduled

 Following the decision to postpone tonight's event we have decided to reschedule to next Tuesday January 14. This is to avoid a clash with the LOC event in Kendal on the Wednesday. All other details remain the same.

Heysham Street O postponed

A late inspection of Heysham's streets has revealed treacherous icy conditions on a large part of the area, making it advisable to postpone the event. This was all because of an overnight fall of snow and or hail, which is unlikely to melt in time for the event today.

Heysham Street O

 Just to let people know that there will be an inspection of the local pavements in Heysham tomorrow morning and a decision will be made then regarding the safety of continuing with the event as planned or postponing it to the following week.
