Race Report by Gareth:
13 Lostockers took part in the 3rd race on the midweek champs last night, Astley Park race 2.
I won’t bore everyone with the route description again as it’s the same race every month for 3 months lol.
Dave Parry stormed home to be first back for team green closely followed by Janet who backed up Sunday’s long Lakeland 50 recce with another fantastic age category win & 5th female overall! Hot on her heels was David Wilkes in his first attempt on the course with a very creditable 3rd place MV60.
Philip ran another great race despite struggling with his breathing towards the end & Johanna improved her time from the first race by a second to also finish 3rd in a very competitive age category & was also 9th female.
Other improvers from the first race were Chris, Heather and myself and Mike was another one to make his first attempt in this years series.
Strong performances in a similar time from Katie, Terri & Lynda whilst Rachel Stevens was a proper trooper competing despite clearly suffering with a bad cold/chest infection.
Big shout outs to Luke & Abi for pb’s in the junior race beforehand!
Well done everyone, next stop on the midweek champs is Haigh 4 mile race next Wednesday 💚🖤.

Race report by Antony: I did the Lancaster Half Marathon today! I got a new 1 minute 3 seconds PB (1 hour 37 minute 24 seconds) beating my Manchester Half time from last year. It’s an out and back course very fast and flat along the river Lune. Definitely one try if you want a ... Lancaster Half Marathon
