Ilkley Gazette report – w/c 28 Nov
From Jean Sullivan… Alison Bennett continued her fine form and set a new club FV60 record for a 10-mile race, by nearly five minutes, with Alison completing the Morecambe 10-mile road race. This out-and-back route, held as part of the Morecambe Festival of running, goes along Morecambe promenade, offering superb views across Morecambe Bay and […]

Brampton to Carlisle 10 Mile – Sun 20 Nov
From Helen Waddington… A bigger field for 2022 possibly due to the race celebrating its 70th year anniversary and possibly because they have now introduced chip timing which makes everyone’s life easier. The first five women (including Team GB Olympian Aly Dixon) all went under 60 minutes – this is a fast course which attracts […]
Tadcaster 10 mile – Sun 20 Nov
From Nick Kealey… It’s a fast one! Don’t take my word for it, look at the stats – 5% of the field completed in under an hour and if you were to scrape under this magical milestone you may feel slightly aggrieved to have only finished in 41st place! I signed up late, three days […]
Morecambe 10 Mile – Sun 20 Nov
From Alison Bennett… It’s 10 years ago since I last attempted a 10-mile race so one was long overdue. I arrived at the Half Moon Bay Cafe, Heysham to collect my race number for an event billed as the Morecambe Festival of Running which also incorporated a 5k and 10k race. With white-topped waves crashing […]
Tour of Pendle Fell Race – Sat 19 Nov
From Jeff Green… One road marathon was enough for me and I remember thinking similar thoughts after running the Tour of Pendle three years ago after seeing stars on the way up the last – and steepest – climb. It’s a brutal route with six major climbs and plenty of strength-sapping bog, which packs in […]
