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.

The last race of the season saw another full squad of Barlicker runners turn out which means that they have had a full team in every race in the season.  They were rewarded by ideal running conditions in what was effectively a sunny Spring day.

Sarah Tipler had a good run to finish in 4th place and in the men's race, Nick Treitl finished in 6th place.

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.
