Radcliffe 10k Sunday April 14th
Radcliffe 10k Sunday 14th April at 11am.
Note new Race HQ: Cams Lane Primary School, Harper Fold Road, Radcliffe M26 3RU (turn on to estate more or less opposite the old Race HQ) it will be signposted. Can people park responsibly once the school car parks are full please.
Even though we have had some rain the trails and canals were bone dry so road shoes would probably be the choice of footwear.
