A few people have told me they’re doing races this coming weekend:
- For those that haven’t had enough of Cross Country, there is a chance to appreciate the natural undulating beauty of one of Manchester’s finest parks: Boggart Hole Clough during the GM XC on Saturday
- Stockport 10 Mile on Sunday.
- I hear there’s good odds on Glen for the 13.10 (miles) at Aintree on Sunday
