Sir Titus Trot Marathon – Sun 18 July
From Colin Williams… On Sunday I ran the It’s Grim up North ‘Sir Titus Trot Marathon’. IGUN is a local company that regularly runs small friendly races from 5K up to Ultra Marathons. Pre-covid, their races filled up quickly, but recently their numbers have been down, so if you are looking for a race at […]
Ingleborough Mountain Race – Sat 17th July
From Rachel Carter… I had entered Ingleborough Mountain Race on the quiet (i.e. I hadn’t negotiated an afternoon out) a couple of months back so had actually forgotten about it until the day before when the ‘Race Instructions’ landed in my inbox on Friday AM. In the end all was good for me to run […]
Alderman’s Ascent – Sat 17th July
From Alison Weston… FRA English Championship race – 5.1 miles with 1,463 ft ascent. Sweltering hot to put it mildly, but six Harriers took part in a very competitive field. Kate had a flyer and didn’t seem to notice the heat, but Sarah and I had to recover in the river afterwards! Great times for […]

Beamsley Beacon Fell Race – Thu 15th July
From Bob Hamilton… You wait months, years even, for a local fell race and then two come along at once! Covid rescheduling meant that the Otley Chevin and Beamsley Beacon races fell on successive evenings. I have a long history with both but Beamsley is the one that’s dearest to me. It’s not easy to […]
Otley Chevin Fell Race – Wed 14th July
From Jeff Green… Now in its 40-somethingth year, the Otley Chevin Fell Race is short (4.5k) but sharp (210m climb). So sharp that, despite being a category C race, it only just falls short of the A category in terms of climb per km. Numbers were a bit down on 2019, possibly due to some […]
