This will be from the Old Stone Trough at Kelbrook. Be there ready for a 7:00 pm start.
This is a seven and a half mile race over road, bridleway and footpaths with deceptive undulation and offering some fine view over Calderdale & Kirklees. Craig Shearer took part in what became a two horse race, with Craig being pipped at the post by Dom Carter of York Postal Harriers, but a good performance from Craig nevertheless.

John Boothman completed his second marathon in a week and Raymond Banks put in a great performance in the V70-74 category.
This is John's account of his day.
It was very cold pre race but thankfully dry. The cool temperature was a bonus once we got running. The pace was perfect and I was really enjoying the support along the route. As I rounded the corner to go over Tower Bridge, the crowd was massive and very loud. Right in the middle of the bridge, with no warning, I felt a painful twang in my right calf and was immediately in pain and limping badly. I stopped and took some pain killers and applied some ibuprofen gel then set off at a very steady hop. The pain subsided once the meds took effect but I limped the rest of the way to the finish. Another amazing experience and great to have family support along the route although I think they worked harder than me battling the crowds. Then straight back to change and off to see ABBA Vantage which was amazing, then out for a meal. A full on day with family and friends. What could be better?
