Race report by Sheila:
Yesterday I ran one of the Cartmel Lakeland Trail Races with my daughter Sarah.
It was supposed to be the 18k Challenge at 1pm but was changed to the amended 10k route just before the start due to the high winds and intermittent very heavy rain of Storm Amy.
It was a nice fairly gentle undulating route west and north of Cartmel, mainly on paths over farmland but with a few short tarmac stretches and streams to ford.
It was very wet, very muddy and very slippery but good fun tho’ – and with a sticky toffee pudding as a reward at the finish!

There were some outstanding results at Parkrun. At Bolton Parkrun, Lostockers celebrated Heather Soden’s 25th Parkrun. Soden finished in 28:16 securing 2nd in her age category. Andy Kirks had an awesome run, finishing in 22:57 for a Bolton PB. Other Bolton results include: Lee Burns 28:51, Bev Atherton-McKenna 29:00, Dougie Ainsworth 30:26 and Lynda Hardman ...
