Sadly, the sports afternoon was poorly attended - the weather obviously putting off many visitors. However, that didn't spoil the event. Those who did attend weren't bothered about a bit of the wet stuff and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
The Senior race had just six runners, with an U17 joining them. Kristian Clayton chose to make his fell racing debut in this race and he certainly picked a tough little one for a starter.
The full senior results were:
1 Jonny Bradshaw, Wharfedale Harriers, 16:01
2 Tom Millard, Wharfedale Harriers, 16:02
3 Declan Bulmer, Wharfedale Harriers, 17:45
4 John Boothman, Barlick, 21:00
5 Sue Marshall, Skipton, 22:56
6 Kristian Clayton, Barlick, 44:45
Yet another win for Jacob Reeday - he certainly is on form at the moment

Two juniors went to the Skipton Park Run this morning and both got PBs. Those same two runners then ran in these race in the afternoon. Jack Villers, a 14 year old came 2nd in the U17 race and Lucille, a ten year old, came 1st in the U12 race. Brilliant running from both these juniors.

Another good turn out from the juniors on this very hot day. Jack Villiers ran a great race to finish 3rd in the U17 race. In the U14 Race Ciara Duffy had a good run to finish 8th girl. The U12 race was won by Jacob Reeday - what a season he has had. He must surely go on to take home the boy's U12 title now, a real star of the future. Lucille Pickles carried on her fine form to finish 11th overall & 2nd girl . Harvey Treitl, Garth Duffy, Jody Whitfield, Lily-Grace Clayton, & Chloe Boothman all ran very well in the hot conditions. It is good to see so many Barlick Vests in the field at the moment, a force to be reckoned with in the future perhaps.
