May featured race
Ilkley Trail race
This race is a good one if you fancy trying out a fell race, it's listed as a trail race but also as a category C (easy) fell race.
The race takes place on the Bank holiday Monday at the end of May. Parking and registration is at the Ilkley Lido swimming pool, Denton Road, Ilkley, LS29 0BZ and you can enter online or on the day.
The 6.9 mile out-and-back route takes in tracks through woodland, fields and moors, interspersed with some short road sections.
Virtually all of the climb is on the way out climbing up through Middleton Woods, but runners will be reinvigorated by the views over the Wharfe Valley and across to Ilkley Moor when they hit the moorland on the top, for a very fast second half of the race.
There is a virtual tour of the course on the Ilkley Harriers web site.
|
|
Date : Sunday 20th October
Distances : Marathon, Half Marathon, 10k
Race registration is now open. Not sure how quickly the events sell out, so it might be worth while entering sooner rather than later.
There is a template for the required medical certificate on the Run In Reims website. If you would like to complete and upload this as part of your registration, and want Alun (Griffiths) to sign for you, then please print it, complete it, and see Alun on a club night. If you don’t get it done straight away don’t worry, you can always add it post registration. Completion of the certificate is your responsibility.
For full details see the January newsletter.
If you already know that you will be joining the trip, or have any questions then please e-mail Lindsey Pearson

March Strider of the Month
|
|
|
Martin Fillingham - had another month of serial racing excellence including 35.09 at Bradford 10k, a possible Leeds Evensplits 5K V45 record of 16.48, running the club's 2nd fastest long leg at Northern 12 stage road relays, rounded off with 35.49 at Keighley Big 10k. He consistently comes first at parkrun, then gives his time as a volunteer with barcode scanning. He’s also very encouraging to team mates who don’t have his ability.
