Only 9 Roadrunners lined up for the Arthur Biggs Handicap race, many club members prioritising their marathon training runs over this short jaunt around the fields. The course was a repeat of the previous weeks, with 5 miles for ladies and 7 for the fellas. The colder weather had dried up the mud somewhat as the conditions were cold and crisp as they set off from Smallbrook Stadium.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/isleofwightroadrunners.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/EE1F8F51-4DA3-437D-A3F7-8CC2659D10D2.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3398\" src=\"http:\/\/isleofwightroadrunners.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/EE1F8F51-4DA3-437D-A3F7-8CC2659D10D2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/isleofwightroadrunners.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/EE1F8F51-4DA3-437D-A3F7-8CC2659D10D2.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/isleofwightroadrunners.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/EE1F8F51-4DA3-437D-A3F7-8CC2659D10D2-768x768.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The aim of this XC series is to run your fastest times over the first two events and then improve once more for the final event.
