Match Report – Northern T&F League, Ashton

Neil Gunn
Buoyed by our winning team performance in Round 1 of the Northern T&F League in Eccles, we travelled over to Ashton-under-Lyne and the home of East Cheshire Harriers for Round 2. East Cheshire pushed us very hard and would appear to be our strongest opponents in this league. While we…

Back on track

Neil Gunn
The role of team manager is often challenging for various reasons, constant emails and pleas for competitors, often with little response. It must be a rare occurrence when said managers have the unenviable task of having to allocate so few places in each event to so many athletes wanting to…

Langley 7 Race Report and Results 2019

Neil Gunn
We must all be mad. What prompts us to get out of bed and battle their way through floods to the start, to run up and down hills whilst wading streams and jumping over bits of tree, and then trying to dry out and warm up over a brew and…

Neil Gunn
Thanks once again for coming out and supporting our race. We had 114 entries and everyone finished. Whilst a bit wet and windy at times, conditions for the most part weren’t too bad: probably not ideal for fast times though. Thanks to all at Buxton Rotary for the marshalling and…
