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.

A proud moment for Harley Treitl today as after winning the U8/U10 race, he met  Olympian Rower, Andy Hodge.

In winning his race, Harley made history, as it was the first ever win for a junior member in a fell race.  Another junior, Jenna Boothman, showed typical Boothman  grit by running today in the Park Run at Skipton, then at Gargrave Show and finally at Burnsall.  The junior training sessions only started recently, but they are well attended by a large bunch of enthusiastic youngsters, so expect to see more Barlick junior members in fell races in the future.

Finishing places and times for those who turned out today are as follows:

U8/U10

1 Harley Treitl 4:43
20 Harry Carpendale 6:34
25 Clover Edwards 6:55

U12/U14

16 Elliot Phillips 8:07 (7th U12)
31 Jenna Boothman  9:03 (3rd race of the day)

A good day for the club in this race, with Ian Livesey and Julian Hood taking 2nd and 3rd places respectively with Andrew Chew making it three Barlickers in the top ten which was enough to win  Barlick the team prize.

The race was won by the evergreen Ian Holmes who showed to day that he is just not a fell runner.

2 Ian Livesey 57:01
3 Julian Hood 57:51
10 Andrew Chew 1:02:33

45 Jennifer Hird 1:14:40
60 Richard Starkie 1:22:48
62 Emma Bailey 1:23:36
77 John Boothman 1:24:52

Locals Ted Mason and Fred Bosomworth are often alone fighting it out on the fells for who is winner of this race -  but not this year.  Young Sam Tosh turned up and upset the local party, by taking the honours, but he had to fight off a strong challenge from veteran Rob Jebb

Because of the many races on today, only two Barlickers entered this race and they finished as follows:

6 Nick Treitl 16:47
55 Lee Edwards 20:55

Darren Kay still has it, as he demonstrated today by showing a clean pair of heels to the rest of the field.  Andrew Driver had a top twenty finish and  led the Barlickers home.  In the ladies race, Lorraine Slater finished 1st FV40.

20 Andrew Driver 1:42:41

Stephen Chew would have liked this race as there was a choice of pies for the runners at the pub afterwards.

4 Andrew Chew 18:01

133 runners enjoyed a great evening of 5k racing, expertly organised by Alan Taylor and his Wesham RR.  Courses don't get much flatter than this and on a warm and dry night, doubtless many recorded PBs.  Sadly, no PB for Terry Lonergan, but he was still pleased to be inside a race target of 24 minutes.

124 finishers

The organisers said that this race was between 27 and 29 miles in length.  It turned out to be 28.6 miles with 3562 ft of ascent, so it was a tough one.  Michael Alexander completed it in 5:20:03 making him 31st out of 126 starters.  A good performance by any standards.

A climbing day out for Andy Hirst and Lucas Payne as they ascended Pillar Rock in the Lakes.

Ex Claytoner Daniel Ashworth  blitzed this race in 43:41 - five minutes ahead of the rest of the field.  It is a tough race with lots of hills, but great scenery.  The rapidly improving Nic Kendall had a top ten finish.
