| HARVESTER RELAY Weekend JUNE 20th / 21st 2009I would like to enter teams for the Harvester Relays again this year.This time there is also a very nice middle distance race nearby on one of the best middle distance areas in the country to make it an even better weekend.Last year we entered teams in the B class which means we can run any combination of runners to suit us. Five runners make a team. Normally the first 2 runs are in darkness, the 3rd run is a dawn run depending on how slow or fast the first two are and the final runs are day runs. I would hope to enter at least 2 teams.If you would like to run please let me know as soon as possibleChris Branford Some details here
Merthyr Common in the Brecon Beacons National Park South Wales.
Complex runnable open limestone hillside with few line features.
Are your night orienteers up to the challenge?
Spectacular campsite / assembly at 1,800 ft with views over the Beacons and Black Mountains. Start your race with the sunset over Pen Y Fan or sunrise over Pen Allt Mawr.
And to warm your brain up without wearing out your legs too much, start your weekend off with a Middle race on Clydach Terrace as used for Croeso 2008 final day.
Complex former spoil heaps. Ideal for a middle race. Fast, open terrain, but is your navigation good enough? Courses for all standards. Come along even if you aren’t going to do the Harvester.
