  5. Well done Josie 🏆💚

Lostock AC would like to congratulate Josie on achieving 3rd place in the Lakes Grand Prix 2025.

Josie’s year of running had not gone to plane and to keep herself motivated, she concentrated on competing in the Pete Bland Lakeland Grand Prix which is a race series taking part in the Lake District. The Grand Prix consists of 8 Lakeland Races spread throughout the year. Runners must complete 4 to qualify and must include 1 of the long races.  Josie completed 5 of the races and her best 4 races were counted.

There were a lot of speedy females in her age category as she was joint 3rd Lady in the overall Grand Prix and was also 3rd Lady in her age category.  A Lostocker amongst all the other Lakeland runners. Well done Josie!

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.
