This event is open to all first-claim, competing members of the club so long as they were either born in or reside in Cheshire. The club encourages anyone who is interested in taking part to put their name forward as this is a great opportunity to represent the club in a team event, and the club will cover the entry cost of all Macclesfield Harriers who wish to take part.
In the event that we have enough runners competing to complete more than one team in any age category, the road running manager will designate runners to the ‘A’ or ‘B’ team.
If you would like to attend, please contact the road running manager via the club website at your earliest opportunity and no later than Monday, August 26th.
