  5. Ramsbottom Mile

Lostockers headed to Ramsbottom to take part in the Ramsbottom Mile, for the later instalment of the Central Lancashire Grand Prix. This is a fantastic event, taking place in Nuttall Park in which runners run in different waves and try to run the fastest mile they can achieve.

 

As participants run just 1 mile it is a very fast event with runners putting their all into the race to achieve their fastest mile. Lostock AC members did not disappoint! Greg Kilshaw was the first Lostock AC member to finish in an epic 6:20, he was closely followed by Chris Baker in 6:46. Jo McManus was the first Lostock female in an impressive 6:58, securing third in her age category. There were other fantastic results including Andy Laycock in 7:00, Rachel Hancock in 7:23, Tony Maxwell in 7:27, Rachel Stevens in 7:48, Karen Taylor in 8:32, Stephen Hancock in 8:36, Mark Checkley in 8:58, Sheila Garewal in 9:15 and Ellie Fortune in 10:10.

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.
