Open to all club members with no registration required. The grand prix will take in some of the interesting fell races that can be entered in the summer and autumn. The grand prix will allow you to accumulate points on placing and participation against other Heaton Harrier members. We have opened up the competition that was run for several years pre-pandemic and was a valued part of the club, by those who took part. In a change from the summer grand prix, we will only post the points accumulated by runners after the last race has been completed.

The top 3 male and female points scorers across the season will receive a prize and recommend the races to be included in next year’s grand prix.
