There has been quite a lot of weather in the Harriers’ home town this week resulting in some quite amusing Strava titles and possibly a little less racing than usual. That said, a number of brave souls still donned their race vests and ventured out to represent the club across the region and beyond… Manchester …
Good evening Harriers! I thought I was in for an easy week, but as ever, information keeps rolling in! There’s lots of Facebook activity about races for 2020, so much so that I’m sure some people must be on commission! Time to start thinking about next year, is it going to be a scattergun of …
This week everyone has been trying to work out if their smart watches do what their phones do and if they need to reset the time, try to reset the thermostat clock and screw up the settings, blow up the cooker doing the same job and then leave the clock in the car because its …
Another action packed week, that’s had me tied up for, well, a long while I think. So engrossed have I been in your exploits, that my tea is in the dog, (that’s now begging to be walked) and I’m on the couch for the night. Well that’s nearly true, but its been worth it, so …

Well where to start! Actually, I reckon that’s fairly easy, because whatever camp you sit in (he’s amazing/it was too artificial with too much technology), it’s pretty awesome that we saw Kipchoge not just break, but pretty much smash the 2h mark for a marathon on Saturday morning! Saw a stat that only 5 parkruns …
Inspired, perhaps, by amazing performances at the world athletic championships in Doha, Glossopdale Harriers have been doing some brilliant racing this week. Read on for tales of running daring-do mainly across the lands of the North. MBNA Chester Marathon (words from Simon Watts) An eventful day in Chester saw 12 harriers run the marathon with …
I’ve tried my hardest but, being English, I think it’s physically impossible to not mention the weather – it’s been rubbish! I went up to Black Hill on Saturday, which actually involved a significant amount of wading, squelching and swearing rather than running. I do find that no matter how bad the weather, there’s almost …
Well, there was a fair bit to write about this week. I think I’ve done a suitable amount of detective work and have managed to get everything in. If you did something, and didnt mention it, and I haven’t found it- ah well. Good running by everyone, those who raced, those who ran for fun, …
After the racing, walking, eating shennanigans of last week – you would have thought people would need a break! But the racing continues! Thanks to everyone for sending in their reports and pics – made getting back at 6pm from a weekend in the Lakes a lot easier 🙂 Wait to be amazing and impressed …
I was tempted to go with “Handful of Plums” for the weekly report title, but the Bullock had to win this time. What an epic week with groups of Harriers all over the place taking on ultras, trail runs, fast road races and lugging sacks of coal up hills. Here’s what happened! The Bullock Smithy …
