discussion via email etc of the format and content of the V S Fell Championship
for 2014. The final decisions will be made at Leos next Tuesday at
8:30pm, so come along and have your say!
Other V S Grands Prix
We now have an agreed

they've no idea who Tomas and Julia are!”
We’ll also have an

Help!
Still looking for
help for Peco race (16 February) and Meanwood Valley Trail (12 April_
Please email [email protected] if you can help at
either (or both) of these events.
See www.valleystriders.org.uk/vsmarshals.htm for list of marshals
to date.
Calderdale Way Relay
The date has been
announced - 11 May. This is the same date as Leeds Half, but I’m sure
most of our off-road runners won’t be disappointed about missing the Leeds
Half.
This race, 12 runners
per team, with a maximum entry of 100 teams, always fills fast, so we need to
decide early how many teams to enter, so we need to know ASAP how many Striders
want to run.
Email [email protected] if you’d like to
run, check the team lists at www.valleystriders.org.uk/vsteams.htm

Running shoes need good homes
Pair of Mizuno Wave
Harrier 3 size UK 5.5. Latest model and only worn 4 or 5 times. From Kim
Knowles. Didn’t suit her, but I and many others use Wave Harriers for
mixed terrain - great on paths, and OK on both road and in mud.
Pair of Asics Gel
Cumulus size UK 7.5. These are mine, are a couple of years old, only worn
5 or 6 times, were a bit stiff for me.
Both pairs available
to try, and if you like them, donate whatever you like to Lineham Farm.
