Club Facilities and Activities
Inter-Divisional 10 K Road Race
Each year, the County Sports Club organise a
10 Kilometre road race. The race entry is open to members of divisional
clubs who compete on behalf of their respective division. The race usually
attracts around 60 to 70 runners - 10 male and female runners from each
division. This 6.2 mile race is usually held over a relatively flat course
somewhere in the Lancashire area.
The race venue in recent years has been in
Lancaster, being incorporated within the annual Lancaster and Morecambe
Athletic Club race held in July. Other years, the race has taken place
from Witton Park and Hutton Hall.
Trophies and prizes are awarded to 1st, 2nd
and 3rd places runners in a variety of different categories including
teams - usually three or four to count. Medals are often given to all
competitors who finish. The Inter-Divisional Challenge Trophy is awarded
to the division with the fastest four runners. Northern Division have
dominated the trophy for many years with Pennine and Central divisions
taking control from time to time.
This is both a competitive and fun event and
as always, we always aim to encourage all standards of runner. As the old
saying goes, "it is the taking part, not the winning that counts"!
The £5.00 entry fee is paid by your
divisional Club and details of the time, date and venue are sent out six
to eight weeks before. Members who have competed in this race in the last
three years will be automatically contacted by e-mail.
