  5. Heaton Park 10k

Race report by Emma:

Heaton Park 10k  (Garmin reckons it was 6.86 miles)  this morning- chip time 01:04:28. Was 5th in age category out of 17.

Didn’t run this for a PB, used it as training run and managed to beat my course time from 2023,  which was 01:06:41.

It was a busy day with a 5k (1 lap), 10k (2 laps) and  a half marathon (4 laps) all on at staggered times.

Although it wasn’t raining for the majority of the  course, the wind was out in full force. The hills seemed a lot harder in the wind

A small section of the original course was barricaded off so we did a slight out and back over a patch of grass.

Most of the route is on tarmac, with a small section taking us through the woods. Scenic past the lake.

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.
