It was the latest counter in the club championships and a few Barlickers took on this classic. It was also an English Champs race so the depth of the field was of real quality. Rob Hope of Pudsey and Bramley took the win with Rhys Findlay Robinson not far behind. Sam Gibbs led the Barlickers home in a creditable 62nd position. Lorraine Slater continued her good form with a 24th ladies position and 207th overall. Pete Jackson made a long overdue comeback which was great to see as well. The conditions for the race were good, which was clear and cool, although it was very windy on the tops. Everyone got round OK except for Richard who finished nursing an injury.
62 Sam Gibbs 3.25.02

Two of the clubs newest members Mark Holgate and Lee Parrington ran in this fast 5k in Lancaster. Both went sub 17mins and Mark ran a pb. Cracking debut for the club. The winner was Robert Hodgson in a very quick 15.20. The Barlick lads seemed to have a battle all of their own finishing within 4 seconds of each other.
7th Mark Holgate 16.55
8th Lee Parrington 16.59
A win for Nick Treitl in the Senior Race and a 3rd for Harley Treitl in the FRA Junior Championship Race
It was a day out for the Treitl family with Nick and Richard taking part in the senior race. At the moment, we are not sure where Richard finished, but Nick came away with the honours for Barlick.
Great run too from Harley in the Junior Championship Race. Looks like there could be a celebration in the Treitl household tonight.

Whilst everyone in the club seemed to be anticipating the Calderdale Way Relay, Tim Piggott was making his way, along with Karl Zeiner, up three of the highest peaks in the Lake District. The total ascent is 3050 metres and the distance separating them is 59 kilometres.
They finished in 61 position in a time of 9:52:28
Not available on the day of the race was the fact two Barlick juniors turned out for a run in the U8 race. They finished as follows:
23 Harry Driver 3:09

Two intrepid Barlickers made the journey to Austwick to take on this fell race. Nick Charlesworth of Wharfedale won the race by 4 seconds from Chris Singleton. Mick Keegan came 40th and Jack Ingham was 135th out of the 169 that ran.
The winner of this race was Simon Bailey who came home in 15:35. A top ten finish however, for Chris Smale who finished in 10th position in a time of 18:31
Jean Rawlinson was our only representative in this race. She naturally won her category and was 59th overall out of 79 runners.
59 Jean Rawlinson 62:46 1st FV60
Tom 'Machine Gun' Corrigan set off hard from the start, but was eventually passed by Julian Hood after 2 miles. After that, the race pretty much settled down. The Barlick men took the team prize with Julian 4th, Tom 6th, Chewy 8th and Sam Gibbs 21st. Also running were Andy Driver, Derek Walkden, Rachel Lowther, Lucy Beresford and Heather Driver. Great to see Lucy back racing again.
