Regional event at Harrogate Army College, 15th Feb

Regional Event, Long Sprint

Saturday 15th February (CLARO AND BAOC)

Claro and BAOC are joining forces to invite you to a world premier in the unique venue of Harrogate Army College. Newly mapped by John Lebeter, Quentin Harding and Ruth Ker. Courses for all including Accessible and Juniors (virtually car-free). Explore the barracks, courtyards, training tracks, armoured vehicles, assault courses, biking tracks, shooting ranges and trees planted in very neat rows.

The courses will be nearly full length urban distances however will feel like Very Long Sprints due to the high density of controls.

Varied terrain, mostly of an urban campus nature, with some unusual army areas, some on softer surfaces. Superb training opportunity before the competitive sprints of the JK and British.

Starts will probably be around the middle of the day however if you have a particular request for early or late run feel free to voice it now – we may be able to be flexible.

Buses from Harrogate town, easy access parking, indoor assembly with toilets, start/finish adjacent.

Option to run another course for free (maps allowing) after your competitive run.

Further details and entries coming soon.

Planner: Ruth Ker (Claro). Controller: Quentin Harding (Claro). Organiser: Gareth Radcliffe (BAOC).
