We thought you might be interested in experiencing racing/running abroad in the mountains of the Pyrenees. Some of your members maybe be daunted by the prospect but rest assured the races are open to everyone. We are both experienced fell/mountain runners who have raced on the continent for many years and are on hand to help with anything and everything i.e race entry/advice/transfers. Gary will more than likely be racing the majority of the races.
