Athletes are given a handicap time based on their previous race and set off in staggered intervals. Alison Butcher was our only runner who set off on the challenge. And a challenge it would be, after two races and several weeks of rain the course resembled a mud run rather than a XC event. &#8216;It was definitely quieter than previous years, the mud was deep, fields were squelchy and wind was gusty but I enjoyed it&#8217; Alison said. Still she did a tremendous job on the difficult course finishing in 1.13.38 and making the top ten ladies in the event! &#8216;I was a minute or two slower than the January one, on the last lap I nearly lost my shoes!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Great job Alison!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/isleofwightroadrunners.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/screenshot_2020-02-25-17-11-171337564704.png\" class=\"wp-image-6814 size-full alignnone\" width=\"533\" height=\"580\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The final race in the Harriers XC series, the aim of the event is to improve upon your time from one of the previous in the series.
