Barlick had three teams in these relays. Two conventional teams and what was supposed to be a family team, but it was registered as a mixed team. The details are:
A Team | Pos | Time |
Andy Berry | 17 | 11:24 |
Michael Keegan | 21 | 11:16 |
Rob Weir | 21 |
10:58 |
B Team | Pos | Time |
Simon Kelly | 33 | 11:51 |
Andrew Carson | 22 | 11:16 |
Scott Baistow | 25 | 12:01 |
Mixed Team | Pos | Time |
Sam Wadsworth | 13 | 10:34 |
Fiona Brotherton | 75 | 19:52 |
Sam Wadsworth | 61 | 10:26 |
In 1999, on the old course, Sam Wadsworth won the egg stage in 3:26, only 4 seconds outside the record. Inspired by memories of former glories, he started at a furious pace, hoping that once more, he might do well in this part of the race. Going up the hill, he was second behind Tom Adams of Ilkley, but from there on, his advancing years and lack of training gradually took their toll. The mad dash at the start took too much out of him and his overall race time was down. However, further down the field, Fiona Brotherton continues to improve with each race.
49 Sam Wadsworth 18:43
308 Fiona Brotherton 34:31
The club was formed in December 2012 as a fell running club, but now also competes successfully in all running disciplines - Road, Cross Country, Fell and Trail. There is a strong spirit of inclusiveness and friendship within the club.
The club welcomes new members. You do not have to be a top runner to join the club. The existing membership covers a whole range of abilities, from those who like to compete at the top level, those who merely like to enjoy the experience of running, to those who are completely new to the sport.
So, whatever your level, you will always find a place in the club, whether it is going out with others of similar ability or joining one of our many training sessions, if you want to push your running to a higher level. And you will always find members in the club who will be happy to pass on their knowledge or offer you advice.
In addition, the club now has a large junior section which encourages participation in the sport by youngsters. You will find details of our junior activities in the Junior Web Site.
If you are interested in the joining the club, you will find an application form on our Membership Page.
