Luke Maude had a great run, securing a top ten place in his first attempt at this race. He was duly rewarded for his efforts by winning the J A MacPherson Trophy for the best newcomer.
Another runner who had a good inaugural run was Lee Edwards, so much so that he was a team counter for the club. Barlick were 8th team with 108 points as follows:
9 Luke Maude 1:44:40
27 Nick Treitl 1:51:14
72 Lee Edwards 2:03:13
Please note that this will be from the main car park at Gargrave and NOT from the Devonshire at Skipton.
This is a good race, with a bit of up and down with the bridges over the A1 and about half the race on gentle trail for good measure. Julian Hood had a great run, coming second after Mike Burrett of Leeds City with a time of 34:27.

Just John Boothman and Glenn Whittaker showed up for this race. Dave Halliday was down to run it, but he was perhaps suffering from Ben Nevis legs or could it have been Ben Nevis nipples.

Matt Lalor made a stop half way round but still managed a win, gearing up for his marathon at the end of October in Ireland. He managed to dip under the 2 hour mark with a 1.59 clocking.
Scott Boardman is also in marathon training and he also took part in this race. He finished in a time of 2:45:10, but his position is not yet known.
Full results to follow.
This race was exactly "as it said on the tin" a favourable first mile, a severe uphill second mile (which added 2 mins, then 4 miles of undulations on quiet country lanes. So a challenging course for 3 Barlicks “boys” in a small select field of just 44 which toed the line. The race was made easier by a gentle breeze taking the edge off temperatures on a fine warm and sunny late summer morning.
LEE PARRINGTON led after half a mile and held on for a clear win. Down the field, PETE WILKINSON had the better of TERRY LONERGAN for the first half of the race, proving stronger on the hills, with Terry coming through in the second 5K.
1ST LEE PARRINGTON 36.19
17TH TERRY LONERGAN M65 49.46
18TH PETE WILKINSON M65 51.19
A good weekend for the Parrington brothers, as Russell also won an obstacle race for his team Muddy Kit.
Ian Livesey and Andrew Carson went in search of pbs and both ran well at Salford. Livers ran 33.04. Andrew Carson has been Improving all year and ran 37.17 which is indeed a new pb.
