Teenager with Altitude Fell Race

Teenager with Altitude Fell Race Report by Josie.

After spending all week in sliders at work to not irritate my achilles, I thought a 16.7mi race with almost 7000ft ascent in the Lakes would do it a world of good!🙄😬
Thankfully, it didn’t give me any trouble until after the race 😩
It was a pretty warm day and I stupidly changed my nutrition! 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ With 2 climbs to go, I started suffering cramp but managed to push on between bouts.
Really chuffed to get round given my current fitness with niggles etc and really surprised to win a voucher for 3rd LV50!🎉 4h40m15s

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.

I’m proud to be a member of Lostock AC, it’s an inclusive club with lovely people, there’s plenty of sporting activities to get involved in and the social get togethers are always welcoming and fun.
