Start Fitness Harrier League

2009/10

The North Eastern Harrier League is a series of 6 cross-country races held over the winter months in various locations throughout the North East.  Blyth as a club has been taking part for many years and is doing so again this year.  There are races for all junior age groups as well as senior men and women.  As for taking part – the more the merrier, there are no entry fees as the club pays these.

Let Ralph know if you wish to be included, they are good fun.

This years races are:-

 

 

 

 

North East Cross Country Harrier League 2009/10:

Juniors: The Under 13's are usually the first race at 12:30, followed by Under 15's. There are two packs, Slow and Fast. Anyone running in their first Harrier League should start in the slow pack. Depending on number of entries, anybody finishing in the first six will be promoted into the next pack. Depending on the distance (normally about 2K), the slow pack will start off 50 - 90 seconds before the fast pack.

Senior Men: Races are generally between 5.5 and 6 miles, and start at approx 1:15pm. There are three packs, Fast, Medium and Slow. Anyone running in their first Harrier League race will start in the slow pack. Finishing in the first 30 in any league race will result in you moving up to the medium pack for the rest of the season and the whole of the following season, and you will start two and a half minutes after the slow pack. Running from the medium pack and finishing in the top 20 results in you moving up to the fast pack for the rest of the season, and the whole of the following season, starting 5 minutes after the slow pack. The first 6 Blyth members to finish the race, irrespective of which pack they started in, will count for the team.

Senior Women: Races are normally around 3 or 4 miles, and start after the Senior Men's race finishes. There are two packs, Fast and Slow, which work along similar lines to the men's. Finishing in the top 5, I think, from the slow pack will take you up into the fast pack. The first 3 Blyth members to finish the race, irrespective of which pack they started in, will count for the team.

Under 17's: Normally after the senior women and there are two packs, Slow and Fast.

Keep your number for each race.
