  5. Grizedale 1/2 marathon and full marathon

Husband and Wife duo, Martin and Amanda Smith headed to Grizedale to compete in the Grizedale Trail 13 & 26.

The race begins at Grizedale Forest Visitor Centre. The half marathon course is the first 13 miles of the marathon route and takes place on forest tracks. The route is undulating, with an elevation gain of 1,500ft with beautiful views of Coniston and surrounding areas.

Grizedale Visitor Centre is the finish for the half marathon, but the full marathon distance runners continue to complete a loop towards Windermere. The terrain is varied, with some road sections.

Martin completed the 1/2 marathon finishing in 2:39:25 and Amanda completed the full marathon completing this in an impressive 6:26:16.

What our members love about Lostock A.C.

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.
