Relays are great fun. A total team, great to watch, tactical in terms of the running order and challenging for the athletes. Our men were out at Stanley Park today, running against the best that the North had to offer. The top 25 teams are then invited to run in the…
The World Masters Mountain Race took place in Betws y Coed on Saturday. Three Wilmslow members took part Mike Hill finished 27th, in the V45 race. Rob Downs 9th in the V50 race. Tony Hulme 12th in the V65. The standard was extremely high. The course consisted of slippery forest…
22 August 2015, Betws-y-Coed Solid attempt to come last in a race. This fine race in Betws incorporated a home international and the GB trials for the World Mountain Running Championships. My daughters were running u20s so I thought why not … it was an open race so surely a…

Thursday July 23rd. Wythenshawe Park track My races to date this year had all been parkuns so the Sizzler held-out the prospect of a ‘best in 2015’ time, but it was not to be. It was small compensation that Tim also failed to beat his Congleton time and neither Geoff…

While most of the club were involved in Buxton and/or Bollington, family arrangements took me to Leeds. The unwritten rule that you will always find another Wilmslow runner in any race you enter rang true when I bumped into Christian, fresh from his Buxton race, at the start line. Billed as…
Thursday July 16th. This proved to be a great success, with everyone keen to do another one on a Thursday evening in the none too distant future. Bernard, John, Tim, Paul, Alan, Bill and Louisa all did 3 circuits of the long Carrs lap (2.33 miles). John was in danger…
