CREG NY BAA FELL RACE

Race history by Richie Stevenson

 

The course has had three different starting points over the years. It actually started and finished at the Creg ny Baa Hotel for a number of years hence its name. The run from the start to Windy Corner was always unpopular so we moved the start up to Windy and included the descent into the Baldwin valley to make up the distance. Then as our fields got bigger we found parking a problem at Windy Corner so moved again to the Bungalow where there is much more room. I`m afraid I don`t know the dates we moved but I think our last change was 1996.The race was always held in February but again this was changed to the Summer to avoid any problems with the Mountain road being closed due to bad weather in the Winter.   

My apologies as myself and Walter's records only go back to 1984 although I know the race was running from at least 1980. I would be glad to hear from anyone who has the early results.
