FRA Relays 2009 - Latest news

Entry Limit Extended

Due to the fantastic response with the event filling up with over a month to go we have reviewed the entry limit to this event and can announce that the entry limit has been extended to 160 teams. This will be the largest entry of teams in the 21 years of the fell relays and this will be the final limit due to safety reasons.

The teams already on the waiting list have been invited to upgrade to a full entry, if all teams upgrade then this leave less than 10 places available. If you want to enter a team then enter via the Sportident website where you will be placed on the waiting list, if there are any spaces available you will then be invited to upgrade.

Additional Checkpoint

There will be an additional checkpoint after Knock Murton on Legs 2 and 4 at GR 089 187. This is to ensure that all runners will approach the showfield from the correct entry point, (it is also on the best route down from Knock Murton). See Route details page for details of all of the legs (except leg 3!).
