[Photo above is Ash Winter, Martin O’Halloran, Diane Kitchen and Sally Armitage] From Ash Winter… A wet and wild day was promised at the 20th running of the Wetherby 10km, with the weather getting worse the longer you took, providing extra motivation for the 600 or so who took part to get on with it.

From Dan McKeown… Having injured my knee prior to this year’s Yorkshire Three Peaks race, I had set myself a recovery target of a ‘Calendar Three Peaks’: to do Pen-y-ghent on Y3P race day, retire from the race at Ribblehead, and pick up the other two peaks in other races during the year. I accomplished […]

The 22-something mile route starts along quiet lanes out of Gargrave towards Otterburn, climbing gently before dropping […]
