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.

Following on from his cracking run in the road relays yesterday, Jimmy Craig followed it up by winning this race and beating Carl Bell in the process.

Michael Alexander found this race tougher than he expected, but he still finished it in 3:33:44, which was a new PB by 26 minutes

Lee Parrington and Mark Holgate had cracking runs in the Pilling 10k. Lee won the race in 34.40 and Mark was 3rd in 36.54. That's Lee's 3rd win in the last two months.

This race is quite unusual in that all age groups run together and compete over the same course.  It was a little sad therefore to see only a few runners turn up and take part.  As it is only a short stroll from his back door, it was perhaps inevitable that Dave Halliday and his lad were there.  They finished as follows:

10 Dave Halliday 14:34
20 Elliott Halliday 18:06
