Stanbury Splash and Quarry runs – 24th Jan
Eleven Pendle juniors ran this race on a cold and damp morning on the hills above Haworth. Pride of place went to Ruby Schofield and Briony Holt who finished 1st and 2nd in the U8 fun run. There were around 140 juniors in total, not bad for a Sunday morning.
Sam Richards and Paul ran the senior race which is very scenic and conditions were ideal. The only drawback was that Paul could see the leaders some considerable distance away on the skyline at a few points in the race.

A couple of club members made the trek up to near Kendal for the first of the Kendal Winter league races. This league carries on every Sunday until the middle of March. It’s worth checking the helm hill runners web site for any last minute cancellations in the event of heavy snow.
Declan had a good run having run the day before as well. Even the weather was good.

Congratulations to the U13 boys who won this race. Darius Boardman came 3rd (2nd counter) with Matthew Dutton close behind in 4th place. Unfortunately this was the only complete team that the Club fielded, but given the bad weather during the previous week this wasn’t too suprising. The lads are now in 2nd place in the overall standings with two races to go.

Congratulations to the u13 boys who won their event. The U11 boys came a very creditable 3rd.
Matthew Dutton was the only Pendle runner who gained an automatic Lancahsire selection, but a couple of others are likely to get in on a discretionary selection.

The Club AGM will take place on Tuesday 26th January at 7pm in the ACE Centre http://www.acecentre.co.uk, Nelson. If you have proposals for formal consideration please let Christine have them in writing. This is a good opportunity to discuss the future of the Club and we would encourage all older members and parents to attend. I promise that you will not be “press ganged” onto the committee merely because you come to the meeting!

The Auld Lang Syne was snowy but with a bit of sun. There were 3 ft deep drifts near the top which was like running in granulated sugar! No results yet but a few hardy seniors completed the course.
A few club members also ran in the Silsden new year race, where Emma Spencer came 2nd lady, despite suffering from stitch. This is a road race for fell runners and despite the fun run status has some class athletes competing. Everyone went home with a bramley apple, running socks (some very large!) and a gift from Santa’s sack.

There were more Pendle runners than I thought all well wrapped up – 8 in total plus a sister. Between them they won the U8G Ruby Schofield, U10B Matthew Barnes, U12B James Marchant and U16B David Wilson. Forgot Sam in the seniors which made 9.
Well done to everyone. Video now online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SRKg9K2cz4 courtesy of Wharfee.
