On the face of it, Ian Livesey had a cracking race to finish 1st MV35 and 13th overall and most people would be happy with that. But Ian being Ian thinks that he can do better. At 14 miles, he was dead, but the stamina was there and he came back for a great finish.
This was the first marathon for Emma Bailey and as always with Emma, she trained seriously for it. Not only that, but as her first marathon, she picked this race as her charity money raising race for this year. For her first marathon, she had a target time of less than 3 hrs 20 mins and she beat that, proving that she had not just turned up to make up the numbers. It was an eventful day for Emma. She was on the way to the race when her car broke down, leaving her to complete the journey to the start by taxi. Not the best possible preparation for the day Then, after ten miles, she developed a blister. After about eighteen miles, she then developed a stitch, which knocked the rhythm out of her. At that point, in her own mind, it was a case of merely getting to the finish line. As her stitch started to ease, the 3 hrs 15 mins pacer went past her. She tried to keep up, but she had lost her rhythm and her head was in the wrong place. She tried to keep up, but he sadly pulled away. However, Emma is a fighter and she kept him in her sights and finished with what can only be described as a brilliant time for her first marathon.
This was a great effort by Emma and you can support her money raising effort by donating on line at https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/emma-bailey55 No amount is too small and every little will help this great cause.

This Tuesday saw round two of the bunny runs and Monday's snow and Tuesday's downpour made the course even worse than the week before which some didn't think possible. For many, it was just a challenge the stay upright never mind try and run a fast time. Young Jack Villiers led the pack home in a respectable 19th.

A trail marathon with over 7,000 ft of climb. That was the latest challenge for Cloey Mason. She finished in 67th position and 12th female in a time of 4:29:28. There were 297 starters.
We had no team selected for these relays, but Sam Boardman stepped up to the mark at the last minute, put a team together which qualified for the finals in Birmingham. Well done to Sam and to everyone who turned out and put in such good performances. Sam has put together a report of the day.
It was good to see a record number of Barlickers taking part in this race and it was good to see Jimmy Craig back racing. He is not yet back to his old self, but he was up there, coming home in 6th place. We had quite a few women out and they all put in some great performances. Leanne Dinsdale was back out racing and although she was nursing an injury and ostensibly going steady, she still led the girls home, finishing 6th female. The conditions were not the best for this race, as in view of the recent inclement weather, there was quite a bit of mud about which made the climbs even more energy sapping.
