The 500th running of this race saw a record number of 797 participants. The Barlickers finished as follows:
6 Ben WHitehead 17:36
95 Ian Cocks 22:25
103 Raymond Banks 22:31 PB
234 John Wadsworth 26:09
329 Mark Wadsworth 28:14
This is a cracking little race with a length of 5 miles and ascent of 900 ft.There is little wonder therefore that it attracted 206 entrants.
Just one Barlicker turned out who just managed a top ten finish.
10 David Poole 43:44 (2nd MV40)
New member Raymond Banks is no slouch when it comes to quick races. He is a V70 and he still completed this 5K in 22:34.
28 Raymond Banks 22:34 (1st V70)
It was business as usual at Gargave show with the horse jumping running over time which delayed the start of the fell race, with the seniors having to patiently wait until all the junior races had been completed.
Just three Barlickers turned out for this race with Robert Cranham leading them home in 6th place. James Wadsworth had come over from Italy for his holiday and he entered this race for old time's sake and managed a top twenty finish despite a complete lack of race fitness. Another with a lack of race fitness was Glenn Whittaker but he also put in a tidy performance for his first outing on the fells for some time.

Jimmy Craig showed today that his win at Whittle Pike was no flash in the pan as he took the honours in this race over Adam Wale of Clayton. Jimmy was the first of four Barlickers in the top ten.

Just back to the two stalwarts of this summer mid week series tonight with just David Poole & Robert Cranham turning out. John Boothman was going to go but he thought that it was Whittle Pike, so it is a good job that he could not make it.
The Barlickers finished as follows:
7 David Poole 49:30 (2nd M40)
14 Robert Cranham 51:26
146 finishers.
Young (defined as MU20) John Ormrod of Rossendale led this race out and never looked as though he was going to be challenged. It was a remarkable race for such a young runner and he finished one and a half minutes in front of his team mate Jon Cleaver, who in turn had run 12 miles merely to get to the race.
First home for Barlick was Ben Whitehead who finished in 4th place and top ten places also went to Barry Charnley & Ian Cocks.
Molly Ralphson had a good run to finish 3rd women and 2nd W45.
New member Raymond Banks was 3rd MV70
4 Ben Whitehead 45:18
8 Barrie Charnley 47:29 (1st M45)
10 Ian Cocks 47:51 2nd (M40)
11 Robert Cranham 48:13 (2nd M45)
25 Andrew Smith 51:54 (3rd M55)
28 Molly Ralphson 52:20 (3rd woman, 2nd W45)
32 Laura Craig 53:35 (6th woman, 1st W35)
37 Hayley Whitehead 55:33 (2nd F35)
40 John Boothman 56:12
