Welcome from Ilkley Harriers
Ilkley Harriers is proud to be organising this event on behalf of YVAA, again, after the very succesful 2009 event. We hope to make it a great day out for all the runners. The course is testing, the scenery is terrific, the setting at Ilkley Lido is superb, and the welcome will be very warm.
Venue
The race is centred around the famous Ilkley Lido, (see www.ilkleylido.co.uk), and changeovers will take place within the grounds.

Route
The route is 2.9 miles in length - 1 mile flat, 1 mile climb then a fast descent to the change-over. The route runs anticlockwise so all turns are left hand turns.
Entry
Entries must be made on the form to be published on the YVAA web site in the near future.
NB Entries arriving after the cut-off date cannot be accepted.
Registration
Team members' names will be registered on the day at Registration in the Lido grounds by each team leader. We plan to open Registration in the Cafe/Pavillion at 9.30am. Please allow plenty of time to register. You will need to bring sufficient safety pins for your race number (a new number - not your YVAA Grand Prix number) and for the YVAA age category number.
NB Age category numbers must be worn on the backs of runners. Not to do so would risk being dropped down the finish order or even disqualification by the race referee.
