CSP CX

Waddow Hall exceeded my expectations as a venue, both Alan (crossjunkie) & I had been to the Hall, Alan with work & me dropping my daughter off for a DofE weekend, and both thought mm could be a good cross venue.

The ladies only race is getting plenty of interest, so if you are thinking of entering…
