Written by GrahamThis is a classic race yet only David Mirfield seems to run in it. He was there again this year and once more had a top ten finish. Andrew Smith seems to be running every week at the moment and is on top of his game with another M60 1st

Bronte Way - 29 October 2023
Written by Graham
A mixed bunch turned out for Barlick in this race. There were some that were really trying, there were those that had not run for a while and were getting back into the swing of things and then there were those that were only in the race for the beer.
Amongst those who was really trying was Emma Taylor who had a very determined run to finish 2nd woman. Even towards the end, on the last ascent up Haworth Moor, she looked very strong and her 2nd place was a well deserved reward for such a performance.
In the men's race Robert Cranham, who is improving all the time, had a good race to lead the Barlickers home and finish in 11th place. On another day, he might have made a top ten finish, but this was his first attempt at this race and at one stage, he was out running on his own and he had to stop and ask the way from passing walkers.
Carl Nevison & Andrew Smith were both really trying and were together at the first res on the tops, but age eventually made its mark and Carl finished 2nd for Barlick.
John Boothman was another Barlicker who was really trying, but at 8 miles, he was only just getting warmed up as he came to the finish line.
Ben Whitehead was not feeling too good on the day and he had a steady run over with Hayley. Jacqueline Collins is still recovering from giving birth to her latest family member and for Des, this was his first run out for a little while and he certainly felt it as he approached Haworth. Paula Cullen was another one who knew that she had been in a race when she came to the last ascent.
It was good to see 15 Barlickers out in the race and good also to see many out on the course supporting. It is a good race (thank you Keighley & Craven) and to cap it all, there was a good post race atmosphere outside The Fleece at the finish.
The Barlickers finished:
11 Robert Cranahm 64:39
19 Carl Nevison 68:02
25 Andrew Smith 71:00
33 Emma Taylor 75:12 (2nd woman)

This race saw a first win for Robert Cranham and is a reward for all the effort he has put in to training. He made a decision some time ago to go out for a run everyday, even if he had raced the previous day and that dedication has now paid off.
This race was one of a mixed set of races and all runners started together. As a result, in the first stages of the race, you had no idea of how well you were doing, as some people were only running 10K. Robert was chasing the runner in front, when that runner suddenly turned off onto the 10K course. In a flash, Robert found himself in the lead. Then a schoolboy error caught up with him. His laces became undone. He always ties his laces in double knots before a race, but today, he forgot to do so. He stopped to tie his laces, but his hands were cold and he was wearing gloves which he had to remove. Whilst he was fiddling about with cold hands to try and tie his laces, he was passed. When he started running again, it took him two miles to regain the lead. Once in front, he did not let up and kept pressing on, even towards the end, when he was no longer under any pressure.
It was an early start for this race (8:00 am), but well worth getting out of bed for.
