TRAVEL DIRECTIONS AND VENUES FOR ROAD LEAGUE 2012

28 March         Oxspring, Wagon and Horses pub, Penistone.

7pm prompt start.

Parking on Football field where the Trunce race starts from. This is the same venue as last year. Do NOT park on the course or in the estate or pub car park.

The finish is in the estate on the road. Please do not stay near the finish area, go into the field to meet other runners. Last year we caused a problem for local people and we do not want to annoy them again. The course is a bit hilly but the last mile or so is downhill. I will be in the pub car park for late names and entries.

The Bar will be open at the pub  in the loft after the race, the toilets are there also.
