Snowdon, Orienteering, Beer, Cleaning and Marshals

The Isle of Man are intending to send a representative team to take part in the Snowdon International Mountain Race on July 19th. A team of four runners will be selected with the first three to finish the race the team counters. Team selection will be based on current form. The Snaefell race will be used as a selection race if there are more than four runners who qualify for the team.

All members of MFR who wish to be included in teams for the Easter Festival of running should get their entries in as soon as possible. When we know who are running we will select teams based on form. Anyone interested in the Beer Race on the Sunday evening should let Nigel Maddocks know.

We hope to have an Orienteering Training event in the near future. Chris Kirk has a course planned but it can`t be used for a few weeks yet. Full info shortly.

Another MFR event planned for the Summer is a Beach Buddies style clean up on the hills. Possibly after the TT on the Snaefell section. If anyone knows of another area, preferably where we run, that could do with a clean up then please contact us.  

Any runner who plans on completing the 2014 Wi Manx fell league who has not put their name down to marshal should note that Monday 31st March is the last chance to do so. If you have not volunteered by then you will not be included in the league. Details on Marshals chart.
