Rivington 1/2 Marathon

Race report by Gareth: An amazing Saturday morning at the Rivington Trail Half Marathon 💚🖤. Six Lostockers took on the challenging course which is always long! I clocked 13.5 miles 🤮.

Waddington Fell Race

Race Report by Checkers; Always wanted to run up this hill.  You can see it from Pendle Hill it’s the one with the mast on it and the road that goes over the top from Clitheroe. The main problem with the Bowland hills is that there is a lot of restricted access. So it’s quite Waddington Fell Race

Joining Lostock AC has been one of the best things that's ever happened to me. I decided to give it a try mainly to loose weight and meet new people. It's really helped with my weight, mental health and output on life. I've been in the club over a year now. Everyone makes you feel so welcome and I love being part of the Lostock family. My running has definitely improved, especially seeing all the medals I've won. It is not just running, Lostock offers other activities too such as cycling, bootcamp and skiing. All I've had a go at which has just been brilliant. Lostock is my second family . I have entered the Machester marathon next year and an ultra. All this for someone who couldn't run . Everyone has made me feel very welcome in the club, I now consider myself to be a runner and would recommend anyone to give Lostock a try.

I joined Lostock AC to help improve my running and to motivate me to run more often. The club has surpassed my expectations. I am not from Bolton originally and did not have many friends in the area. I now feel part of an extended family. I have been encouraged and supported to run half marathons, marathons and an Ultra. I would never believe this was possible 3 years ago.
