Julian commented this was a small, friendly race with free hot stew and a mug of tea at the end.
304 runners.
Mark Holgate, one of the 3 amigos from the Carnforth area, was running in the Lancaster Half today. He had a cracking run, finishing 7th overall and first V40. His time of 1.18.42 was a personal best.
Also achieving a personal best in this race was Scott Boardman who finished in 78th position with a time of 1:33:54
So all in all a cracking day.
The main aims of the club are to increase the participation of running in Barnoldswick and to keep organised running as accessible as possible.
