Today, at Sefton Park, Liverpool, the athletic club are competing in the Sefton Park marathon road relay race.
The course has, this year, been altered so that competitors are always running within the park boundaries and not on any main roads. The distance now covered by each runner as a result of the alteration is only two-and-half miles and teams have been increased to ten runners per team to maintain the marathon distance for the race. The club team has been selected and will be notified accordingly.
To round off the season in a fitting manner the club are tonight holding their hot pot supper. The cross-country awards will be presented during the evening.
The club are promoting a dance at the Grosvenor Ballroom next Friday evening.
