Road Relays:
The club has entered
one
senior men's team for the 12 stage
road relay
at Heaton Park, Manchester
and two
ladies' teams of six
at the same event which starts at
11.30.am.on Saturday 2 April 2005.
St Helens-Sutton Road
Race: 2006:
Following the decision of the London Marathon Company
to hijack the date of our own road race the club has
decided to move the date in 2006 to the final Sunday
in March (the first day of daylight saving). Hopefully
this will lead to an increase in numbers, including
our own club members who want to warm up for the
Northern Road Relays which traditionally takes place
on the first weekend in April. There is the
possibility too that members of other clubs will see
the race as a good opportunity to sharpen up for the
road racing season. The date has been applied for but
will remain provisional until the impact of the
changes in UK Athletics, scheduled for later in the
year, have taken place.
Unfortunately, as
the inter-counties cross country races have been moved
back to the second week in March, there is no
guarantee that our provisional date will be free.
Watch this space.

Team Selection:
Team selection, as in previous years, will be based on
certain basic principles. (1) availability; (2) form;
