Each event will have a choice of 'Long' (roughly 5km) and 'Short' (roughly 3km) courses.We will compile series results with the best 5 of 9 events to count.
Most of the races are in parkland, so competing in a T-shirt and trainers will normally be fine.
Most races are £5-8 for juniors/students, £6-8 for BOF members, and £7-9 non-members.Entry-on-the-day attracts a £2 surcharge for some events.
Some land access charges are not finalised so fees may change.
Check individual event pages for details. Hire of an SI/SIAC card will be available for a small fee.
