The 2010 champs so far....
Record numbers at both the Osmotherley Phoenix and Lakeland 100/50. Runfurther runners really are running further this year - we have had record entries in all our races so far this year.
Osmotherley Phoenix saw top runners competing for the record - Adam Perry won for the mens and Nicky Spinks won the ladies title. Read Martin Beales (3rd) race report HERE and Jayne Anguilley's report HERE (Jayne is one of two new members of Team Runfurther - read all about their exploits further down the newsletter). To see loads of photos taken by Mark Hartell click HERE
Lakeland 100 and 50 again saw record numbers of entries, now in its 3rd year this race is set to become one of the "big" UK ultras to rival some of the European races so many of us have been travelling to over the last few years. Again we had some fantastic battles at the top end of this race and here's a report from Hannah Moore-Barton (Team Run like a Girl) who came in as 3rd female home in the 100, a position she really didn't expect - it's a great read and she did it all for charity - read her report HERE. Britta Sendlhofer won the 100 and wrote a great report too HERE. And Andy Mouncey's report HERE. See loads of photos HERE and some more HERE. Winners were Stuart Mills and Britta in the 100 and Sarah Rowell and Andrew james in the 50.
Next up is the Long Tour of Bradwell - get an entry HERE or if you are already entered see the route HERE, description HERE and checkpoint list HERE
The one after is the roughty tuffty (never seen such big tussocks as the ones half way through this supperb event!) Pumlumon Challenge - enter HERE
See the Leader Board HERE - please check you are on it if you have raced so far, if you have not raced yet you will get on once you complete your first Champs event
