Report by Terry Lonergan
I generally do a gentle 3 miler the day before a race. Yesterday, as more hardy folk, prepared to battle up the Weets as the rain continued the lash down, I shuffled along the sodden canal at a pace well over 10 minute per mile; thinking tomorrow at the CATFORTH 10k I'll need to be doing 2 minutes per mile better!
The only person I saw gave me no encouragement. Merely, saying, "Take it easy, old timer!" Cheeky bugger, I thought.
As long as you're prepared to put a number on a vest and the adrenaline kicks in "taking it easy" is not really an option, is it? We chase times, some even PBs, or on day's like today we combat the elements and chase fast starters from half way.

Twenty three hardy souls made the trip North, on the Barlick bus, to one of the toughest midweek races on the calendar. Plus Paul Elcock, John Boothman and Katie Towers drove up themselves. The first incident of note was the smells emanating from the bowels of Bob Jackson's hound. The wall of Pedigree chum like smells was incessant. As we drew close Jock was given the task of looking after the beast. Then it had a s*#t. Screw thrust a dog bag into the big man's hand and told him to take care of his responsibilities. Jock did, only the bag didn't meaning his chubby fingers pierced through and went straight into it. Oh dear, I've not seen someone feel as sorry for themselves since Pete Jackson DNF'd at Widdop after 100 yards.

As you would expect, there was a good turnout of our junior runners and running on their "home" turf", they produced several race winners. These were Isaac Reeday, Summer Fitzpatrick (who was actually 1st in the race), Lucille Pickles and Jack Villiers. There were many other good performances on the day, which are too numerous to mention specifically, but with their increasing race experience, it is encouraging to see our youngsters are starting to become competitive.
