Event Details 1. Saturday 1 May - British Elite Long Distance Championships British Long Distance Championships Future Champions Cup The event will take place at Abraham’s The northern part of the area is mainly Forestry Commission coniferous plantations, the majority mature and very runnable, but with some blocks of younger trees. The mature forest is a conservation area. The southern smaller area is open heathland, some deciduous woodland, and quarries, partly active (out of bounds) and partly old worked out areas with lots of detail. The whole of the competition area is contoured with many valleys, reentrants, and spurs. The Day 1 start times (Individual) are from 10:00 until 14:00. 2. Sunday 2 May - British Relay Championships The relays will be run in the same Forestry Commission area as the Individual. It will use the same car park and assembly area as on the Saturday For both days the finish will be in the assembly area, with commentary, radio controls, and in the case of the relays a spectator control close to the car park, contributing we hope to a good atmosphere. The British Relay Champs are forming one round of the UK Relay League this year.
