Gord's 6 Sunday 10th August 11am

Gord's 6 2014 will be run on a Sunday morning rather that Saturday evening. The race venue was switched to Fownhope last year and this is undoubtedy one of the most scenic courses in the country taking in meadows, riverbank and woodland trails around Caplor Hill Fort. The usual glorious selection of tea and tasty cakes will be available at the finish. All the money raised goes to local charities, this year Marches Family Network.

Entry forms and on-line entrycentral links are available on the club web site.
