Announcements

THE St Helens-Sutton Dream Trail Race has announced two major changes for this year's event in August. There is an overall race entry limit of 400 and prizes have been extended to include the first three men and the first three women in each race. Every finisher will receive a medal.

'We can only accept an overall entry of 400 competitors' said race Director Phil Thomas, 'so it's important for athletes to enter as soon as possible, especially as the reduced Early Bird offer ends on the 30th of June'. 'We have extended the prize list to ensure equality of opportunity between male and female athletes'.

Entrants for the 5k race must be 11yrs. or over on the day of the race which is 28 August while anyone competing in the 10k even must be 16yrs. or over.

The numbers have been sponsored by the Clock Face Hotel and other sponsors are welcome for different aspects of the race.

Potential sponsors are asked to ring 01744 633476 for details.

Entry is online via the Dream Trail website at http://www.dreamtrailrace.org.uk/race-entry/.
