Noooo. What a shame. Do you have a virtual option and/or the ability to defer to next year? 🤞

Virtual option. Was hoping for some pacing from a club buddy on the day but hey ho it is 2020 🤣

Ahh, no! Its impossible to stop hoping til it's there in b&w.

You'll be able to tackle it virtually now! Is the training going ok?

The training is never wasted though. Our legs have no idea whether we’re running with others in a race or on our own 😂

My entry into the Bath HM scheduled for March has gone away too ☹️ It’s just been postponed until September 2021!

Oh eck. It’s so disappointing isn’t it ☹️

Keep training and hopefully spring might see a return to racing 🤞

Alcester 10k too. On the bright side you can find somewhere more interesting than round and round the racecourse 😁

Its a shame when something you're looking forward to gets cancelled.

I've never ran at an actual event and hope to one day😊😊

Oh that’s disappointing For you. I don’t do events but read so many posts about the adventures and achievements.... if you decide to run it virtually let me know and I will get my Pom poms out and cheer you on all the way.... I am rather loud so you will hear me wherever you run.😊

That’s a shame Windoze, but not entirely unexpected😢 Hopefully you’ll be able to defer it until next year or something? You can always run a virtual HM if you want to. I’ve done a couple since lockdown started. It’s not the same as an organised event but it still counts!🙂👍 Good luck!😀

Not what you're looking for?
