There were around 35 Barlickers and their families at the presentation night for the supper and dinner dance to support those club members who had won prizes in this series..

The leading lights were Sarah Tipler who won the ladies' championship and Jimmy Craig, who was runner up to Marc Hartley in the men's championship.

Jean Rawlinson came away with the first FV60 prize and Emma Bailey came away with what seemed like a table full of silverware for second FV35,  most improved runner and only lady completing all thirteen races.

Andy Berry received the cup for being 6th man out of almost 500.

Finally Des Walkden came away with a 'scholarly prize' for his comments on Facebook.

A few more pictures of the evening will be added later in the day.

Richard Robert of Eryri must enjoy running in the Pennines.  Last week, he won the Whittle Pike race and this week, he returned to Lancashire to try his luck again and he secured another win by setting a new course record and finishing with a good lead on the young local, Joe Johnston.

A few Barlickers went over for this race and they were led home by John Boothman, in spite of the fact that he was struggling after his recent long bike ride.  The night also saw Bob Jackson return to competitive running, finishing not far behiind John.

Emma Bailey tagged along in the race behind Jean Rawlinson and every time she tried to pass her, Jean always managed to pull out that little extra something that kept Emma in her wake.  However, the run in to the finish was on Tarmac and feeling more comfortable on that surface, Emma at last found the opportunity to pass her team mate and finish just ahead of her.

Bringing up the rear for the Barlickers, but having a cracking run, was James Stead and although it was a tough course, he admitted afterwards that he really enjoyed it.

Muddy Kit wanted 4 top men and women to form a team to represent and promote their brand.  This race acted as a Muddy Kit team trial with only the top 3 being guaranteed a place in their team.  It is a well established course full of deep mud, barbed wire, water crossings, climbs and all other manner of weird and wonderful pain inducing obstacles..  Because of the rewards to the leaders, it was an out and out race to the line.

Despite being his first race back since suffering a calf injury, Shaun Chew had a blinding performance to finish in 1st place, no doubt spurred on by the thoughts of free kit and a place in the team.  James Fent and Luke Wallwork also entered and both had great runs especially since all three Barlickers only found out about this race a little over a week ago.  Results may not be published, but the Barlick boys all finished in the top 3rd of the field.

The race was won by the young jacob Boyle of Hyndburn in 42:26 and the ladies race was won by Holly Page of Calder Valley. The Barllickers finished as follows:

5 Jimmy Craig 43:35
12 Andrew Driver 47:18
17 David Poole 48:46
20 Sarah Tipler 49:04 (2nd lady)
31 Jonathan Boothman 51:39

This is the final race in the Grand Prix Series and sees Jimmy Craig take 2nd place in the men's championship and Sarah Tipler take 1st place in the ladies championship, with 4 Barlick ladies in the final top ten championship places.
