Club 5k's, March 2010
Following the successful first run last September I'm putting on a 3 race series of 5k runs on consecutive weekends in March. It will be a similar course along the canal from the Fisherman Inn to Saltaire, through Roberts Park and then along the river path to the finish.
All members of the club are welcome, boys and girls, young and old. The idea is that event is over and done with in an hour so if you feel you can run quicker than 35 mins for 5 Kilometres come and have a go.
I am also planning to set everyone off in groups again and, over the 3 races, there will be prizes for the biggest improvers and maybe for the winners of each.
When? 6th, 13th and 20th March
Start Time 9.30am
Where? On the canal bank near the Fishermans Inn
Entry Fee? 50p

Ilkley Moor

Dave Stephenson
2009 Champion Dave Stephenson

A total of 9 harriers braved the snowy conditions and made it to the start of the Ilkley fell race. One intrepid soul (Robin) even ran over Bingley Moor to the start and then did the same on the way home. Snow and ice made the conditions difficult especially on the descents and times were generally a few minutes down. Robin Lawrence and Pauline Munro both had excellent runs to finish second male and second lady. Rachael Smith was second lady vet 50. In the club championship Mike Smith was first vet 50, and, this, must be a first - there was no vet 40 competitor. The next race is Midgeley Moor in the Calderdale valley where there are some route choices to be made. If anyone wants to do a recce get in touch. Results and pictures are on the Ilkley Harriers website.
