Event Info
Event 3 in the Summer Sprint Series using the MapRun app.
Each of the four events will have three sprint courses of approx 1-1.5km.
Do one, two or all three courses.
All three courses will be printed on the same A4 map so no need to return to assembly between courses, just upload your results, download the next course, input the pin number and make your way to the next start location.
Entries via RaceSignUp (see below).
Event 4 Meltham Tues 21/07/26 (using the brand new urban map) (entries close Weds 15/07)
Directions / Car Parking
Assembly and map collection .
Unfortunately there is no suitable indoor assembly/toilets for this event.
Map collection and download (please report back to download after your run) will be from my car (Grey VW Golf WN25ZHZ).
I will aim to park on Birkby Lodge Road close to the junction with Blacker Road (see Google map below). This is close to the (now closed) Spinks Nest pub.
