Barlick Fell Runners dominated at the top of the tables taking 1st and 2nd in the ladies' race and and 2nd and 3rd in the men's races. Rachel was the the women's series champion and she was pushed all the way by runner up and team mate, Jacqueline Collins. The Barlick women won prizes throughout all the age categories from F35, F40, F45, F60 and not forgetting the redoubtable Jean Rawlinson who finished 1st W65. The Barlick top finishers were:

A great run by Danny Mills saw him split the Ribble Valley pairing of Chris Holdsworth & Matt Lalor and take a well earned 2nd place. Good supporting runs from his teams mates saw Barlick take three places out of the top ten and five out of the top twenty.

Bearing in mind that we are in the middle of the holiday season, there was a good turn out of juniors for these races and some good results too. The Pickles family did really well coming away with three firsts. Jack Villiers also took a first place and Alex Mason was unfortunate to miss out on a first place by just one second. There were also podium finishes for Bella McCredie, Ciara Duffy and Oscar Clayton.

A good turn out of Barlickers for this race. Joe Dale of Victoria Park Harriers put on a terrific performance to win the race by one and a half minutes. There were some great performances from the Barlick runners and with four finishers in the top ten, we would have taken the team price, had there been one.
Jacqueline Collins came third in the ladies race and had she not tripped at the finish line, might have finished second. The were several category prizes for the Barlickers with Andy Berry - 1st M40, Lucas Payne - 1st M45, Paula Cullen - 1st W40 and Jean Rawlinson - 1st W60. All in all, a good day out and as a bonus, the rain held off. Also thanks to Trawden for putting on a well organised, and as always, a friendly event.

This is a lovely race. It is six miles, but it is quite hard, not because there are any steep hills in it, but because there aren't. Once you set off, you have to keep running over the 1,100 ft of ascent..
It attracted 192 runners but sadly only one Barlicker - James Austin. The winner was Luke Turner of Clayton in a time of 40:05. James put on a good show and finished:

Congratulations to Rossendale for putting on a well organised race and for getting the results out so quickly.
Some great racing today from our juniors with six of them picking up podium positions. Betsy Pickles had a good run to win the U7 race and Harry Roberts had a great run to win the U9 race with Bella McCredie following up her win yesterday with a 2nd place today. Chloe Boothman took second place in the U11 races and in the U15/U17 race, it was great to see two team mates battling it out at the front of the field, with Jack Viliers winning the U15 race and Alex Mason winning the U17 race.

This is a nice little 8.8 mile race with 1099 ft of ascent and well worth travelling over for.

The main aims of the club are to increase the participation of running in Barnoldswick and to keep organised running as accessible as possible.
