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.

Raymond Banks is a quick runner for his age and that is his forte.  However, he does seem to be getting the bug for fell running and he was the only Barlicker in this race

 This is a tough old race which basically involves running round the top of Pendle and then repeatedly dropping over the sides and running back up again, which each climb tougher than the previous one.  Barlick as a club did well in this race with two finishers in the top ten which went a long way towards making Barlick the team winners of this race.

Craig Shearer has gone through hell recently with complete lower back pain and loss of physical ability to train or race.  But he was born to to run and he finally got back to training and had his first run back after injury in this race.  With a show of grit and determination, he hammered out a third place against a good field.  Not a bad result after weeks of injury.

After making his inaugural come back on 20 October, it didn't take Andy Collins long to clock up a race win, coming home ahead of team mate Ben Whitehead in this Barlick one-two.  For most of the race, the two ran together and it was only in the later stages that Ben dropped away.

It was a good day for the Collins family with wife Jacqueline coming home 2nd in the ladies race.

The conditions for this race are rarely good and this year was no exception.  There were the usual boggy conditions underfoot and the clag was also down which made navigating difficult.  Andy Berry had a good race to finish in 8th place, but the clag hindered him and he reckons that had he been a bit more familiar with the route, a top five finish could have been a possibility.
