Liversedge Half Marathon – Sun 12 Feb
From Sally Armitage… I entered this race mostly because it’s cheap, I have quite a few races in the calendar right now and the piggybank is not happy. I’d also seen its elevation profile (just over 300 metres climb) and decided it looked like cracking training for the flat halves I have coming up. Kate […]
Ilkley Gazette report w/c 13/02
From Jill Ezard… Course and personal records and a win on the road made for a busy weekend for the Harriers Week two of February and already the Harriers are getting into their stride.

Long Mynd Valleys – Sat 11 Feb
This classic AM fell race (18.5km/1370) in Shropshire is a counter in the English Fell Championships this year. Ben Rothery ran 1:30:08 and came a brilliant 4th in a stacked field of 307 runners. The first six male finishers and the first lady all beat the previous course records. Results
Harrogate Hustle – Sat 11 Feb
From Petra Bijsterveld… Another month, another Punk Panther ultra in the diary.

Basically a straightforward combination of the Harrogate Ringway and the Knaresborough Round, two existing routes on paths through […]

York Evensplits 5k – Fri 10 Feb
From Dave Foyston… On Friday the 10th of February I decided to take a trip to York to enter the 5K Evensplits race at York University Cycle track. I have heard a lot about this venue and that it is good for a PB, I wasn’t disappointed. The course is pan flat with each lap […]
