Killington Sports – Thur 2 Jun

From Rachel Carter…

Our family travelled to Killington Sports on Bank Holiday Thurs evening – (Between Kirkby Lonsdale & Sedbergh) a traditional old English sports meeting of events and races for young and old – sack races, tyre racing, egg throwing, potato races, sprint races, mountain bike racing, wrestling and fell racing (we left before the 3 legged races!) – everyone pays a nominal fee to enter the meeting then you can try your luck at as many events you fancy. Traditionally low key, with a great inclusive atmosphere and a lot of fun! Definitely recommend everyone experiences one of these events. See BOFRA calendar which includes some more of these events. I was 3rd female in the fell race (1.5miles, 400′), and 2nd in the ‘potato race’ so overall probably breaking even between petrol costs and entry fee!
