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.

Eshton Moor - 1st August 2024

Written by

The race was won by Andrew Cairns of Wharfedale. Amelie Lane, an under 21 and also of Wharfedale Harriers, won the ladies race, finishing 10th overall. On a beautiful, but very warm and sticky evening, the Barlickers were led home by Jethro Whitfield. Jethro had a strong start, climbing well. He got too hot crossing the fields at the top, so he slowed and recovered, and then kicked in again to finish strongly. Andrew Smith had a strong run, winning the Vet 60 category. 

12 Jethro Whitfield 37:42
18 Robert Cranham 39:22
27 Andrew Smith 42:48 (1st VET 60)
42 John Boothman 48:44 (3rd VET 60)

66 finishers.

4 David Poole 56:45 (1st M40)
7 Andy Berry 57:49 (1st M45)

75 finishers.

114 Emma Law 11:13:42

1373 finishers.

9 Robert Cranham 19:47

2 Jethro Whitfield 18:30
