Membership fees

Despite the name, the club participates in all disciplines of running, fell, cross country and road and welcomes applications from runners of all abilities to join us. If you are not sure if the club is for you, why not come to one of our training sessions or one of our regular pub runs. You will be under no obligation to join, but you will get a feel for the club and a better idea if the club is for you. You can merely turn up to a training session unannounced, but it would be better if you contacted our club secretary first (details on the contacts page) and let him know that you will be coming and he will make sure that whoever is leading the group will look out for you. If you are an absolute beginner to running, you too are most welcome to join us in one of our sessions, but please contact our secretary first and he will make sure that you will have a programme with which you are comfortable. Membership fees for the club are as follows:
  • Seniors
  • For members over the age of 18

What a change it was from the race last week at Littleborough, where it was firm under foot and very runnable.  This week, it was back to bog trotting. The race was won by Calder Valley runner Gavin Mulholland in 56:53.

The only Barlick runner in the race has been steadily improving and at last has made a top ten finish.

Windy Hill Fell Race - 16 February 2014

Written by

This is a new race and is ideal for this time of the year.  It follows good tracks and paths out of Littleborough and when it gets to the tops by the old Roman Road and Black Edge, despite all of the recent inclement weather, there was no bog trotting, but good firm ground which led to the long descent back down again.

Sam Wadsworth led the Barlickers out.  He set off steadily, aware of the long run up to the summit.  As he approached the old Roman Road, he was in 18th position, but he managed to take the odd place on the pull up to the summit, where he found himself on contention with Marc Sennett of Wharfedale.  From then on, it became a nip and tuck battle between the two and this contest pulled them through the field and they managed to gain a few more places, with Marc eventually edging it over Sam. At the end of the race. they both agreed that they had pulled each other through and joked that they would have made a good relay pair.

Witton Park, 8 February 2014 - An Update

Written by

The League have now produced the final results for this race and Jimmy Craig finished in 26th place, with a time of 36:37.  The result is that Barlick Fell Runners were 4th team on the day out of the teams from all divisions!

This means the Barlick were once again the first team in Division Four, earning the club the maximum 10 points and we are now Division Four Champions, with promotion to Division Three for next season, irrespective of what happens in the last race at Kendal. 

Blackburn Winter Warmer - 9 February 2014

This race marked the start of the club road championship.  The weather was very wet before the start, but luckily, the rain held off whilst the race was in progress.  However, it was very windy.  The first 4K is a climb, which is quite steep in places, but at least it means that the second half of the race is mostly downhill.

Mid-Lancs Cross Country League, Witton Park - 8 February 2014

Written by

There was a good turn out of Barlickers for this race in what could be the key race to secure promotion.

In the ladies race, Sarah Tipler had a cracking run to finish in 5th place.  In view of the conditions, probably the best choice of foot wear was spikes and had Sarah been wearing spikes, it is not inconceivable that she could have finished 4th or even 3rd.

In the men's race, there were plenty of Barlick vests on display.  Nick Treitl set off at a fast pace and was in the top ten, with Jimmy Craig not far behind him.  Closely following those two was V40 Lucas Payne, who can always be counted upon to put in a doughty performance.  As always with the cross country group, there was a strong team spirit and everyone put in a great performance resulting in the team finishing in 5th place out of all four divisions.  This was without counting Jimmiy Craig who for some reason was missing off the provisional results.  The places for the Barlickers were:

10 Nick Treitl 35:24
21 Jimmy Craig 35:55 ?
37 Lucas Payne 37:56
51 Dan Taylor 39:29
55 Andy Berry 39:44
65 Shaun Chew 40:20
83 Stuart Bryan 41:36
97 Andy Carson 42:54
110 Derek Walkden 43:52
136 James Fent 46:11

It would appear that the team will have secured the maximum 10 points for this race and with it, promotion to the third division for next season.
