Getting Acces to results on the GLCL website
I'm sure you know that the GLCL group has it's own website. This is useful for posting results and acting as a landing point for links/rules/information etc.
Unfortunately, facebook won't allow us to use a link to take you direct to it. Instead you need to search for the website within google or other 'search engine'.
This is a link direct to the results page on the website where Paul Dodd and Marc Cross post chip timing and official results.
https://sites.google.com/site/glclrunning/home/results
If you 'bookmark' this page on your phone or computer you'll be able to find it later and so get access to the XC and Road results the second they are uploaded (don't forget to refresh each time).
