What a finish in the U11 boys race. It was neck and neck as Jacob Reeday and Sammy Pickerill of Southport raced towards the line, with Sammy just edging it by a fraction of a second. But what tremendous spirit showed by Jacob. That is what racing is all about.

The new season got underway at Cuerdon, with the men looking to defend their championship status and the women, newly promoted to the first division, looking to make their mark at the top level. The ladies were off first with somewhat of a depleted team in that several runners were missing because of the FRA relays the following day. However, it shows what strength we have in depth, as the girls who turned out, put on a brilliant show to enable the team to finish second in the division. For her first outing for Barlick in the cross country team, Sarah Jarvis made her mark, leading the Barlickers home and finishing 5th overall. Because all of our leading runners were in the V35 category, we finished first team in that category.

It was the same with the men. The team was depleted because of the FRA relays. Again what strength in depth do we have as those who turned out put on a tremendous show to bring the team home in second place against a very strong Preston team. Marc Hartley led the team home, with Lee Parrington not far behind and these two were supported by Stephen Shorrocks, James Tingle, Dan Balshaw and Ian Cocks.
