Lots of racing over the last month and some cracking shots as can be seen on the cover and above. Our cover stars are Chris Sumpton and Sara Rookyard, takling the unforgiving Huddersfield Half. Above is Martin Hardey (image courtesy of http:/ / www.wildmanmitchell.com/ keswick-mountain-festival-2017), taking on the equally unforgiving Keswick 25k trail run. In both runs I'm sure the effort is rewarded with the stunning views PLEASE any reports, news, fixture or otherwise please email [email protected] Submit fixtures to Fixtures [email protected].

With our common love for a glass of red wine our team name seemed obvious? ? Team Merlot. The event starts and finishes in Endcliffe Park, with runners setting off in batches every 15 minutes. There are a total of 11 stages varying in length from 2.8kms to a final sprint to the finish of 400metres. One unique aspect of the event is the timing method, competitors are given a fob device which is docked into a timing box at the start and finish of every stage, in addition where stages cross a road competitor?s clock off and back on either side of the road crossing hence no time is lost crossing. On crossing the finish line the fob is quickly dusted myself off and got received a large top quality medal. put into another docking box and going again, the only damage was a Andy and myself finished in 580th within seconds of finishing you are grazed leg and shoulder! position out of 1658 finishers, in a presented with a full print out of time of 1:49:08, considering it was every stage time and your overall It was good to see other Hull our first crack at the event, time in addition to category runners at the event, everyone neither of us had really trained thought it was a refreshing change position. to doing the Humber Bridge HM hard for it, we had one or two The distances between each stage which was on the same day.
