11am on 16 December
at
Newfield Inn
Yes, it’s the 10th anniversary Caw Downhill race. Fancy dress is required, not a bikini is recommended, snow and ice entirely possible. Chasing start with handicaps by Sue based on age, speed, costume and whether you have been good girls and boys this year. We meet at the Newfield at 11, walk up the hill and run down. The winner is the first person to finish the course and down a pint of beer or, for extra suffering, soda water.

Blacksmith's Arms
Broughton Mills, LA20 6AX
Sorry Dave, but we’re starting with a nice run this year. No flags, start and finish are outside the Blacksmiths and if that’s not open by the time we’ve finished, we can go to the Manor instead. To make the race more WL sized we will miss out Raven Crag and take the lower path straight to the stream crossing, but you do have to go up Stickle Pike. Sue is handicapping the Winterleague this year so get your pretend injuries ready in good time.
10:30am on 05 January
at
The Hawk
From the Hawk as usual. Organised by Pete and if you like a proper warmup or want to lengthen your run, he’ll need help with flags.
10:30am on 12 January
at
Birkrigg Quarry
Starts at the bottom of the sledge ramp, near the Birkrigg crossroads. Two laps of the hill and the woods as usual, flagged all the way and finishing down the hill. Organised by Will and Sue and all are invited back to ours for tea and bacon buns after.
10:30am on 19 January
at
Crake Valley Layby
Organised by Hazel, with a slightly amended route so it’s a bit easier to follow and flag, and you get to go up Beacon twice. Start and finish are in the same place, by the parking area just above Blawith.
10:30am on 26 January
at
Roanhead Car Park
Organised by Matt R so we might all go the right way this time. Sand dunes, long grass, strange marshy bits and the long run back up the beach to finish.
01pm on 03 February
at
Birkrigg Quarry
Details TBC but the Kendal Winterleague race on Birkrigg is very likely to be this weekend.
10:30am on 09 February
at
Blacksmith's Arms
Broughton Mills, LA20 6AX
There has to be a road race in the winter league and this is it: just over six nice hilly road miles, starting and finishing at the Blacksmiths. The route goes anticlockwise (unless Ian has other plans) so you head up the hill then turn left to take the top road back to the scissors crossroads. Straight over, down to the Hawk, up to Stephenson’s ground and back to Broughton Mills.
10:30am on 16 February
at
Giant's Grave
Organised by Julian: two laps of Tottlebank and Blawith Knott, starting and finishing at the Giant’s Grave. Always misty.
10:30am on 23 February
at
Whicham Church
A straight race up and down the Combe from the road next to Whicham Church, then off to the Square Cafe for prize-giving. Organised by Will and I’m wondering about going to the South Summit too so that people can check their line for the fell race two weeks later. What do you think?
