Hot meals are now available at the club house on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. For the present, Fran is going to prepare them for purchase on the night but it may prove necessary in the future to pre-order. Ian

Bramhall 5k
Bramhall Park 5k came of age on Saturday with race number 18. After the run from Steve Vernon the previous week (14.55) what was in store ?In terms of winners it was a Stockport double with Andrew Nixon 1st home (16.16) and Sarah Aylmer 14th and first lady (20.15). 3rd…
Birchwood 10k, August 17
A low turnout from Wilmslow compared to previous years for one of the most competitive 10K's in the North West. If you like your long straights and roundabouts then this one is for you which naturally lends itself to quite fast times, although the motorway bridges always make for a tough…
Manchester XC League 2008/2009 season
I sincerely hope that we have plenty more or perhaps a summer to look forward to ! With plenty more of our own Summer series events , one more Cheshire GP and the weekly Bramhall Park run , we are not short of action. We are also only ten weeks…
Pie & Peas
6th August 2008 The stiles had been replaced with kissing gates turning the first 3 miles into a fartlek. The pies were tasty but Nick's 3.5 pie record was unchallenged. 1 DANIEL CLIFFE MU20 26.31 5 MALCOLM FOWLER M45 28.40 50 7 JIM PENDRILL M35 28.48 49 8 ROB DOWNS M40…
Sale 10 (mile), Sunday 3rd August
Some say 4 laps of the park is boring, but when I'm trying hard I don't notice the surroundings, and keep coming back to Wythenshawe as it's so easy to get to. Dry and without the heat of previous years, all 3 Wilmslow entrants were close together approaching the track…
Sale 5k Sizzler, Thursday 24th July
Damian took the second prize and Ray and I both missed prizes by 7 seconds – I was too slow for the V40 prize, but Ray was actually too quick for the prize for the 60th finisher. 1 Andi Jones 14:482 Damian Nicholls 15:4016 Trevor Morris 17:0555 Ray Eagle 18:42…
Alderley Edge 5
This was a great course. For those who weren’t there, there was nothing we hadn’t run in training but it was linked in a way that I’ve not run before. It combined uphill, downhill and flat, on-road and off-road plus the killer hill, a mile from the end, that we…
Good for Age – London
Old Bags and Old F***s please note – the procedure for claiming a ‘good for age’ place in the 2009 London Marathon is to write a letter to the organisers before 22 August. You need to provide ‘proof of performance’! Enough said. See the London Marathon web-page. Andy
