Rachel Lowther Wins the Ladies Race
This year, the race was won by Charlie McIntosh of Pudsey & Bramley in a time of 2:20:37, whist Rachel took the ladies race, improving on her time last year by over 21 minutes.
In the first part of the race, there was nothing to choose between the first three runners, who drew away from the rest of the pack, but as the race developed, Stephen Chew did not adhere to his original navigational plan and as a result of this, the two lead runners pulled away from him and he found himself caught by the next two chasing runners. However, on the run in, he managed to out pace these two and secure third place.
In the ladies race, Rachel Lowther went off steadily and appeared to judge the pace of the race well managing to hold on to her lead and finish just in front of Kerrie Bretherton of Trawden.
The field was much reduced this year, suffering from the clash with the Championship Race at Coniston
Stephen Chew made a return to the fells in this race, coming home in third place. Ashley Holt from Rossendale was the race winner.
Barlick shirts are now starting to appear all over. There were three on the Island of Guernsey over the Easter weekend in this road race. They finished as follows:
20 Lucas Payne 36:30
120 Mark Newbould 48:24 PB
184 Kathryn Payne 56:45
1 Lucas PAYNE 17:54 New PB
4 Chris SMEDLEY 20:04

The table below shows the breakdown of times and positions at the various check points and have been taken from the official results web site. However, the positions at the Hill Inn and Ingleborough look very suspect, as they are missing several of the top runners.

In the first three Bunny Runs, Barlick Fell Runners were conspicuous by their absence. However, they made up for it last night and entered several teams and it was good to see so many Barlick shirts around, some worn by members running their first ever race.
Sarah Tipler had a particularly good run to record a time of 11:14, which is the 16th fastest ever Bunny Relay Leg time. Woodentops are in the process of altering the results to record this.
The official results are now available and details of the Barlick teams are below.
It was nice to see Chewy out in a Barlick vest this weekend, even though he was feeling rough and did not perform as well as he can. Having said that, he still beat 97% of the field.

With the light nights, numbers are increasing for the pub runs. Stephen Chew has once more put pen to paper, or perhaps more accurately, fingers to keyboard to produce an account of the night.
The main aims of the club are to increase the participation of running in Barnoldswick and to keep organised running as accessible as possible.
