Well done to all the juniors who took part in the BOFRA Championships this year. There was some excellent running by all involved and in particular by Jacob Reeday who was the Under 11 Boys Champion and by Lucille Pickles who was the U11 Girls Champion.

There is a small but growing band of runners within the club who are getting the taste of serious fell running in the Lake District. This is one such race. It is 13 miles in length with 4,757 ft of ascent and is a tough challenge. Luckily, the weather was kind and a record number of starters set off (just short of 400). In view of the recent weather, the going underfoot was very slippery on the rocks and very boggy everywhere else. As a result, many runners spent quite a bit of time on their arses. Stuart Heaviside had a good run and posted a good time as well as leading the Barlickers home. Ben Hoye did not look too great before the start, but he came to as the race progressed and he also had a good run. John Boothman set off wearing an old worn pair of trainers, which were not ideal for the conditions underfoot and they did not help his race. In addition, John also suffered from "sheep syndrome" and after the bad step on Crinkle Crags, he followed a group of runners who led him on a longer excursion than he need have taken. This probably cost him about thirty places, but he still managed a quicker time than last year.
Special mention should be made of Helen Harrison. She made up her own mind to take on this race and whilst she has done long runs, they were probably not anything like the terrain of this race. However, she not only completed the course, but finished in good shape and looking cheerful.

For the first time since the club was formed, we had a ladies team out in this race and they worked well as a team, they all put in a tremendous effort and came home with a very creditable 6th place.
Again, another good performance from the men, equalling last year's finishing position of tenth place and the third time that the club has made the top ten.

Jonathan Cleaver has been in training for this race for some time and this paid off on Sunday when he came home in 300th position in a time of 2:34:51. Here is his report of the day:
Definitely up there as possibly my favourite world major with it being a flat fast course with masses of support on the roadside. The day started off well with clear blue skies, but as we started to race the clouds came over, with wind and light rain. I had a target in mind to pace at 05:43 min miles, but I made a bit of mistake trusting this to my GPS and found out by half way I was already 80 seconds adrift which is really hard to get back in the second half. I hit 20 miles at around 01:55 which had me in range for a 02:33, but my legs started to fade ever so slightly drifting me nearer to 06:00 miles for the final 10km landing me on 02:34:51 and 300th place overall in a field of over 44,000. That's a good couple of minutes knocked off my PB from Tokyo which I am delighted with. As always with the marathon - however many you have done - it takes you back to school and you learn about what to do and not to do next time! That's all 6 majors completed now starting back in 2011 in NYC finishing in 03:23.
The main aims of the club are to increase the participation of running in Barnoldswick and to keep organised running as accessible as possible.
