<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Saturday 17th April&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; National&nbsp;6 Stage Road Relays&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Sutton Park, Birmingham</strong></p>
<p><span>The Club Running version of the <span>FA</span> Cup. This is a week before the London Marathon, so the perfect chance to sharpen up before hand.</span></p>
<p><strong>Saturday 15th&nbsp;May&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; National&nbsp;Masters Road Relays&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Sutton Park, Birmingham</strong></p>
<p>For those of you over the age of 35. We would like to send a full quota of teams to this event so please support it. The Age Groups are: 35-44 ; 45-54; 55+</p>
<p><strong>Sat/Sun 12th/13th&nbsp;June&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Welsh Castles&nbsp;Relays</strong></p>
<p>20 Stages over 2 days, 10 Saturday and 10 Sunday. The length of the stage varies from 8.6 miles to 13.3 miles, there are 6 Mountain stages (3 each day). Run as 20 mini races and the times for each stage added together to find the total time.</p>
<p><strong><strong><span>Wednesday 14th&nbsp;July&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span>Cosmeston</span> Relays&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <span>Cosmeston</span> Park, Penar<span>th</span></span></strong></strong></p>
<p>This is an off road event which is a Fig 8 course around Cosmeston, the teams are made up of&nbsp;3 runners each running 3 miles. This is a popular event with the club and we normally enter several teams.</p>
<p><strong>Saturday 16th&nbsp;October&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; National&nbsp;4 Stage Road Relays&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Sutton Park, Birmingham</strong></p>
<p>This is another big event for the club to be involved in. It is a similar course to the&nbsp;6 stage but not quite the same. We missed this in 2009, but we want to be there in 2010.</p>]]></content></entry><entry><title>Liver Birds are flying to Spain</title><id>http://www.lescroupiersrunningclub.org/ladies-updates/2009/11/30/liver-birds-are-flying-to-spain.html</id><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.lescroupiersrunningclub.org/ladies-updates/2009/11/30/liver-birds-are-flying-to-spain.html"/><author><name>Club Captains</name></author><published>2009-11-30T09:53:05Z</published><updated>2009-11-30T09:53:05Z</updated><content type="html" xml:lang="en-GB"><![CDATA[<p>Congratulations and well done to Katie Beecher, Libby O'Duffy, Jen Salter and Liz Ashton for their victory in The U.K Clubs Cross Country Trials in Liverpool on the weekend!
