I am about to start long overdue on-the-run updates to the SWSN running pages.

I aim to get things sorted as soon as practically possible and envisage this will - sensibly - require two weeks, at least, as it has done in previous years.

As ever I will include relevant links whenever possible and you are invited to send me any new race dates or race updates (ie new websites, new organisers, new race names, correcting my errors etc) by email to This email address is being protected from spambots.

In the meantime thank you for your patience, support and understanding runners...
