This race was a baptism of fire for Andy Driver. This 22.5 km / 1830 m English Championship race was run in atrocious conditions, which made it quite tough.

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.
