Can you race past the double Olympic champion this summer?

As we move towards the end of an Olympic summer, our thoughts turn to the road racing season and the final three events of the second runbritain Grand Prix.

The last of the spring races, the Bupa London 10,000 in May, produced one of the best in-depth domestic results in the past two decades, with Mo Farah winning the men's race. In spite of his victory and time-related bonus points, however, he’s only fifth in the overall Grand Prix standings with 450 points from one race while Jon Pepper – who has gained solid points in the opening two events – is the current men's leader on 482 points.

In a bid to maintain the quality of the British fields at the remaining three events, athletes ranked in the top 250 British runners based on the current 2012 runbritain Grand Prix standings (after two events) should have now received their personal invitation to enter those remaining races (men and women), beyond the usual public closing date.

We hope you can take advantage of the opportunity and look forward to seeing you in Swansea, Bristol and Peterborough.
