Membership fees

Despite the name, the club participates in all disciplines of running, fell, cross country and road and welcomes applications from runners of all abilities to join us. If you are not sure if the club is for you, why not come to one of our training sessions or one of our regular pub runs. You will be under no obligation to join, but you will get a feel for the club and a better idea if the club is for you. You can merely turn up to a training session unannounced, but it would be better if you contacted our club secretary first (details on the contacts page) and let him know that you will be coming and he will make sure that whoever is leading the group will look out for you. If you are an absolute beginner to running, you too are most welcome to join us in one of our sessions, but please contact our secretary first and he will make sure that you will have a programme with which you are comfortable.

A run up Blencathra or Helvellyn & the Dodds.  Both are pretty challenging races, but for Tim Pigott, that was just the start.  After Helvellyn, he continued over Fairfield and then on into Ambleside.  Having got to Ambleside, his race was still far from over.  He continued along the Western side of Lake Windermere over Claife Heights and eventually crossed the finishing line not far short of the top of Morecambe Bay.  It was a total of 50 miles with over 13,000 feet of ascent.  He set off at 8:00 am on Saturday morning and finished  at 11:09 pm on Saturday night.  

What an amazing performance.

The juniors flooded the Haworth hill tops at the weekend with 22 taking part in the infamous Curly Wurly rat runs. The under 8s were up 1st and were straight into the action with a fast start making it easier on the narrow path out of the quarry.  1st home was Lucille Pickles followed by George Fitzpatrick and Chloe Boothman in quick succession.  In all, there were 69 Runners in the under 8s race with 10 being from Barlick.

Next up was the fast and furious start for the under 10s through to under 16s. We had 5 juniors in this race with Logan McCredie working his way through the field to finish 26th. Edie Poole and Clover Edwards had a good tussle finishing 44th and 45th.

The under 12s also had 5 Barlickers running with Elliot Philips leading the way with 7th place and Teigan Judson finishing 6th girl with Jenna Boothman not far behind.

The under 14s had just two juniors in attendance with Emma Wilkinson leading the way in 23rd place.  Macie Dykes had quite an afternoon still managing to finish despite fainting early in the race. She was happy with the 5 chocolate bars she received for her endeavours though.

After the race is was home, get changed and off to Matrix where we had around 30 bowlers taking part in a social gathering whilst we handed out the club championship trophies. Cracking day out and great to see all the kids getting along well together.

It is a long way to go, but it is a good day out and the last race of the BOFRA season is a challenging one..  

44 Craig Child 1:02:07

Tom Adams was the easy winner of this race, finishing somewhere around his record time and four minutes ahead of second place.

Following on from her 2nd place finish in the championship race yesterday at Langdale, Nicola Jackson had another good run today to  win the ladies race.

The two Barlickers finished:

42 Lee Edwards 50:46
90 Angela Donlan 55:07

Sutton in Coldfield was the setting for the premier road relay event of the year. Confidence was high after the good showing at the northern six stage. Luke Maude was at Langdale on his favoured surface and the revitalised Marc Hartley was back. The competition was again of a very high standard with Olympic 5000m man Andy Butchart running the fastest leg of the day for his club Central. The Barlick boys got off to a solid start with Gary Shaw getting things under way with a good run on leg 1. Jimmy Craig lost a place on leg 2 but was still feeling the after effects of the sickness bug which hampered him at Ian Hodgson. Tom Corrigan was on leg 3 and took 7 places back and moved the lads into the top 50. Matt Lalor also pulled back 5 places and. The boys were on a charge. In form Ian Livesey took back another 5 places and we were in the top 40. Marc Hartley then took 6 places back on the final leg and anchored the team to a very respectable 34th in our first ever 6 stage national. Targets have been set for next year after a debrief on the beer in Burnley. Top performance from the lads yet again.

Stage One 56 Gary Shaw 18:57

A few of our juniors are taking part in this competition.  The qualifying was a couple of weeks ago and those who did qualify went forward to the semis today at Giggleswick. Jacob Reeday representing Cracoe school won the year 5 boys race.   Lucille Pickles finished 3rd and Chloe Boothman 6th in the year 4 girls.(Thornton in Craven).   All three now go forward to the whole of Yorkshire finals at Whitby in March. Jayden Whitelock finished 12th in the year 6 boy's race, a good run in a hard fought race.

This race was part of the Great Run series in Glasgow with Scotland's premier mass run. Conditions at the start were cold ( 6 deg C) and foggy.  The fog lifted for the start at 11.35 and with the sun shining, conditions were perfect, reaching 14 deg. The special Scottish atmosphere can not be mirrored anywhere else, with Pipers at every mile marker.   It was televised on BBC 2.  Paul Elcock was there soaking up the unique atmosphere and he came home in 949th position.

Sometimes in relays  you have to say that it was just not our year and that applied to this race.  Nick Treitl & Ian Beresford ran the first leg and were up in contention behind the leading teams and on the ascent, Ian was leading. As the terrain levelled out, Nick took up the running.  It was a bright sunny day and the sun was getting in your eyes and there was a tendency therefore to put your head down and press on.  Nick was doing this and was following the team in front.  Sadly, that team took a wrong turning and Nick followed them.  Ian was a little way back and could see what was happening and he shouted out to Nick to turn back.  Unfortunately, Nick could not hear him. By the time this first pair sorted themselves out, they were down to 27th position at the handover, whereas Wharfedale, who they had been chasing, handed over in 5th.  

From that point, we knew that we had a battle on our hands, but our second pair of Luke Maude and Julian Hood did a sterling job and pulled back 14 places and handed over in 13th position at the Kirkstone Inn.  Andy Berry and Chris Smale were the next leg runners and ascending Red Screes, they were gaining on the Dark Peak Vets.  However, they could not keep that pace up and over the leg, they slipped back and lost 6 of those hard won places gained by Luke and Julian.

The last leg runners were Tom Corrigan and Jimmy Craig.  Both had been suffering from stomach upsets and could easily have pulled out, but to their credit, they turned out on the day, so as not to let the side down.  They would have normally been expected  to pull back a few places, but they were too drained to do that, although they did keep hold of their hand over position and the team finished in 20th place, which is our worse performance in this race since the club was founded.  As we said, it was just not our year.

At the front of the field, a great battle took place between Dark Peak Borrowdale, Keswick and Calder Valley.  Borrowdale have won this race for the past nineteen years, but this year, they were knocked off their perch by Dark Peak who came home a comfortable five minutes in front of them and may have set a new course record in the process.  The Dark Peak vets came home in 10th place overall, but were first vets team and the Dark Peak ladies finished in 32nd place and were the first ladies team.  Quite a performance on the day from that formidable club.

Full leg times and splits are in the results section.

Ian Livesey managed to secure an elite entry to this race and he was rewarded by being the first Brit and finishing 5th overall in a time of 2:35:39.

A great performance from Ian.

As we have alluded to previously, our ladies are on fire at the moment.  In this race, they were first ladies team, not just in their own division, but overall, and in addition, they were also first overall FV35 team.  What a performance!.

The first ladies team was:

Sarah Tipler, Lorraine Slater and Angela Donlan.

The first FV35 team was:

Lorraine Slater, Angela Donlan and Rachel Villiers.

The men put in a good performance and a special mention has to be made of Marc Hartley.  Following his recent medical problems, his doctor told him not to run, but ignoring that advice, he had a test run out last week at the Burnley Park Run (where he finished in first place) and this week, he had another cracking run to finish just behind Matt Lalor.  His contribution, along with the rest of the team, led Barlick to finish in second place and put us in a strong position to challenge for the first division title.

In the Men's League the counters were:

Matt Lalor, Marc Hartley. Lee Parrington, Mark Holgate, David Mills  & Andrew Chew

In the Junior League, our U11 boys did well to finish 2nd against Clayton le Moors.  The team was:

Jacob Reeday, Harley Treitl & Ben Thompson.
