get your spikes out for aykley finale

The next round of the North East Harrier League takes place this Saturday, at Aykley Heads, Durham.
This is the third fixture, following the cancellation of Lambton Castle, and will be the last NEHL fixture before Christmas, with the remaining taking place in the New Year.
It is also, sadly, the last chance to run on this iconic course, arguably the best ‘true’ cross-country course in the region - so not one to be missed.
The course is all off road, with no tarmac or gravel and definitely one for long spikes after all the recent rain.
We will be setting up shop near the finish funnels with tent etc early doors as ever, but strongly suggest younger athletes bring warm clothes for later, change of socks and footwear. Refreshments might be available; toilets are on the car park of the police HQ.
Best way is to follow the A167 off the A1 signposted Chester le Street, then continue on A167 towards Durham. The parking is in the County Hall car park, and it’s a short walk through the woods, up the hill, to the venue.
Instructions from the league are here: PARKING: Parking is at the old County Hall site (DH1 5UQ). There is no charge for parking (landowners don't charge us for use), but PLEASE USE THIS CAR PARK AND ACCESS FROM THE ROUNDABOUT AT THE JUNCTION OF A691 AND B6532. ANYONE PARKING ELSEWHERE (EG UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL, DURHAM CONSTABULARY) IS LIKELY TO BE TOWED AWAY.
If you’re not yet sure if you’re registered, get in touch: there’s time to register before the date.
If you’ve run before: don’t forget your number! (replacements available at a £5)
Hope to see you there!
