  5. Yarrow River Splash 10k Trail Race


Race report by Sheila:

Six Lostockers took part in this year’s Yarrow River Splash on Sunday – a very popular multi- terrain trail race with over 250 runners. It starts following the River Yarrow, running up and down through the woods trying to avoid tree roots and not slip on steps and very narrow paths. Then it heads towards Charnock Richard, running across fields, a shortish uphill road section and around lakes before returning to the woods along the river. The final section involves running through the river not once but twice!
It wasn’t an easy run but felt like a real achievement at the finish.

Finish (chip) times –
Matt Withers 1.04.04
Tony Maxwell 1.08.04 (1st M65)
Lee Burns 1.09.01
Sheila Garewal 1.15.32 (1st F70)
Ian Burns 1.17.31
Jo Withers 1.26.00

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.
