TRIMPELL 20 – 6th March 2011 We couldn't have wished for better weather conditions for our pre marathon race. The sun was shining and the winds from last week in Blackpool had gone! I set off with my usual goal in mind of trying to keep Nicky in sight as…
Wrexham Village Bakery Half Marathon, Sunday 27th February 1 Ben Fish 1:06:36 26 Trevor Morris 1:18:51 500 finishers Quite windy, but fortunately the rain stopped as the race started. Previously renowned for being a short course, but I clocked just over 13 miles on my Garmin – word is they…

As an alternative to Alsager, 5 of us opted for this jaunt to the home of film director Danny Boyle ( Slum Dog Millionaire, 127hrs) Used to be 12 miles now shortened to 10 along a disused railway line – muddy ++ and undulating loops round a couple of parks…
Sunday February 6th. Alsager attracts a quality field, I seem to remember Mike Halman finishing 44th. Nevertheless it has never been that popular with Wilmslow runners; those who are not training for London have their eyes on the Wilmslow Half and a five-mile Sunday does not fit the schedule. We…

The overnight thaw meant water on ice, absolutely treacherous. Those who ran were brave, those who didn't sensible. Nick won for the second year running, even though he struggled on the ice. He was followed by Owen and Simon Bolton. Jim won the category for overtaking the most runners but…
Sunday 19th December 2010 1 Malcolm Fowler 27:10 39 Simon Bolton 34:05 (252 finishers) Full results : http://www.ukresults.net/2010/cracker.html Photos courtesy of Bryan Dale : http://www.racephotos.org.uk/ In case you were wondering, the Cracker did happen although for the second year running it was changed to the rather enchanting snowy 4.5 mile circuit of Tittesworth Reservoir.
