For a change it was a lovely day for this race, with a clear blue sky greeting the runners at the start. There were fewer runners than normal this year due to the Championship Race taking place at Tebay, but the closer friendly atmosphere was a useful reminder of how fell races used to be.

Two Barlickers turned out in the sweltering conditions to take part in this race:
10 Eddie Simpson (1st V45)
67 Vicky Holgate (2nd W40)
Lucas Payne was over in the Isle of Wight and he turned out for the local Park Run. It was very hot and quite a convoluted hilly course, but he says that the organisation was very impressive with places for kit, car keys etc.

Report by Terry Lonergan
I generally do a gentle 3 miler the day before a race. Yesterday, as more hardy folk, prepared to battle up the Weets as the rain continued the lash down, I shuffled along the sodden canal at a pace well over 10 minute per mile; thinking tomorrow at the CATFORTH 10k I'll need to be doing 2 minutes per mile better!
The only person I saw gave me no encouragement. Merely, saying, "Take it easy, old timer!" Cheeky bugger, I thought.
As long as you're prepared to put a number on a vest and the adrenaline kicks in "taking it easy" is not really an option, is it? We chase times, some even PBs, or on day's like today we combat the elements and chase fast starters from half way.
The main aims of the club are to increase the participation of running in Barnoldswick and to keep organised running as accessible as possible.
