Events & Competitions Committee have agreed that for the JK 2017 races, Day 2 will be Middle Distance in format for all age classes rather than just the Elite. This decision currently applies only to 2017.
We would like to take this opportunity to gain your views on Day 2 normally being a Middle Distance race rather than normally being a Long (Classic) Distance race. One significant benefit may be to make it easier to host the JK.
Currently, only areas that offer sufficient challenging terrain meeting the standards required for two Long (Classic) Distance races are considered to host the JK.
More areas could be considered to host the JK if the terrain requirements are reduced to being able to stage one Middle and one Long Distance race rather than two Long Distance races.
A survey has been set up (only 4 questions) so that BOF can gain your views on this matter.
What do nopers think?
