Silverstone 10k - 7.30pm Tuesday 8th May 2007

It's nearly time for our annual trip to Northamptonshire for the Silverstone 10k. Please contact Liz if you are planning to enter and/or if you need/can offer a lift.

We will meet at Jordan Hill at 5.30pm on the evening and set off around 5.45pm. Post-race we will be heading off to a local hostelry for a meal before driving back to Oxford.

The race is always good fun and the flat wide course is ideal if you want to try for a PB or just do a 10k that doesn't involve any hills.

Entries for affiliated runners are £4.50 in advance, £6.00 on the night. The final date for postal entries is Tuesday 1st May. You can download an entry form here.
