2008 IOM Bank WHL Rd 2 and Junior Fell Championships

WHL RD2

Round two of the Isle of Man Bank sponsored Winter Hill League takes place on Saturday 15th November over a course that is slightly different from previous years with the start and finish now at Fenella Beach.

Distance remains just under 3 miles and the course will be fully marked. All runners should note that the race will start at 1.00pm with registration between 12.00pm and 12.45pm.

The Peel race is probably the most runnable in the Winter Hill League as it is on public footpaths for most of the course. It is ideal for any runner who fancies a dabble on the hills for the first time.

  1. We still need helpers for Saturdays races.

    The Junior race is just about covered now but we still need about 5 more helpers for the Seniors race.

    Please get in touch as soon as possible if you can help. It would be nice to have everything sorted before race day.

    Hopefully we will get a good turn-out for the junior championships. Please stay on after the seniors race and support the youngsters.

  2. I can help if you want.
