Thank You. 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 Martin Peace U11 West Yorkshire Sportshall Trials 2009/2010

The Team details and the full results
The teams went on to compete in the Yorkshire Regional Sportshall Athletic Festival. Read how they did here Christmas Handicap 2009
A slightly disappointing turnout of 24 runners turned up on a cold but clear day with snowy and Icy conditions underfoot, I've still got the graze from the Trig Point Ice. However, there were some more recent members turning out which is great news so thank you guys, even if some weren't quite sure of the route.
Thank you to Tom Macdonald for manning the Trig Point in very very cold conditions, hope the Baileys thawed you out afterwards Tom. Adrian Rushworth benefited from a generous handicap to edge out Mark Westman by 8 seconds with Steve Firth coming home 3rd after complaining vehemently to the Handicapper, its been noted don't worry. Martin Peace was fastest overall and Becky Weight fastest lady. Thanks to everyone for turning out on a freezing day and well done to Mark Westman for his fantastic suport of club events throughout 2009, he completed every event and fully deserves the Rushton Shield.
