May 28th Just the five of us ventured to Staffordshire Moorlands first Summer Series race, ten in total. It was raining on the journey there but as we were getting closer the sky was becoming bluer, ending up being a clear sunny evening and perfect running conditions. It was a lovely race, quite undulating in areas and with cracking views of…
parkrun "Summer Series" Update. Saturday 23/05/15 As the season moves on I am sure we will get more runners turning up to register scores in the parkrun table, not surprising that numbers are thin on the ground at the moment as the summer series and other races are coming thick…
Summer Series, Race 10 Sunday May 25th. This was a country fete at which we, the fell runners, were a supporting act to the main players, the sheepdogs. I think there were differing perspectives on the course itself, in that it shuffled the normal finishing order, the course characteristics favouring…
DM 5k is always a nice evening race and this year (after a course re-measurement) we got even more value for money with an additional 100m. I was nearly a minute slower than last year but the extra didn't seem to affect the flying Dan Cliffe. Sharon* was 3rd woman…

In case of doubt about the venue for this race (Monday 31/May at 13:00), see the page for the Sheep Dog Trials, (not to be confused with the Bamford Carnival which is a couple of weeks later). This trail race, Summer Series race 10, will take place from the Bamford…
Its an honour for any athlete to be asked to wear a "county vest", and two from Wilmslow had that honour yesterday. The Inter Counties Fell Running Association Championships took place in beautiful Betwys-y-Coed yesterday in the foothills of Snowdonia. For the first time Cheshire had junior teams running and…
Great work from our teams in the BMAF Relays today in Sutton Park. The ladies finished sixth in a very competitive field : all ran very well. The men finished third gaining what we understand are the first National medals the club has won. Mick also won a medal for the…
Mad Hatter 5 mile trail race, Wednesday 13th May. A new 5-mile trail race organised by Belle Vue Racers. Stockport, the location between Tesco and the M60. If that does not sound promising, then it is misleading. Once you get into Reddish Vale you could be out in the country.…
