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.

Giants Tooth - 1 January 2017

A New Year and a new start for Chewy who decided three months ago that this would be his first race back.  He knew that it would be a fast and furious race, having done it five years ago.  It was quite boggy up to the giants tooth summit.  On the approach to the summit, there was a leading group of six, led by Joe Crossfield, who had pulled away from the rest of the pack.   Ali Burns from Valley Striders made a decisive break on the descent, taking the lead which he held until the finish.  There was only about 40 seconds separating the top 5 which made it a good competitive outing.  

This was Shaun & Stephen Chew's first outing since the Calderdale Way relay last May and Stephen is happy being up there again.  Shaun had a good run to finish 8th and Nick Kendall also had a good run to finish 27th. 

Thanks must go to Ian Lewis and Caren Crabtree for putting on a well organised race.

1 Ali Burns 18:02
4 Stephen Chew 18:31
8 Shaun Chew 19:27
27 Nick Kendall 21:10
