Brampton to Carlisle 10 mile road-race -Saturday 21st Nov

The 58th edition of this 10 miler on Saturday, was run over a shortened route because part of the course was lying under water. As the race organisers were keen to offer a run for the field of more than 400 runners that had entered the popular race, said to be the longest running 10 mile race in the country, a 9.25 mile course, that missed out a short section through the village of Brampton near the start, was run.

Brampton-Carlisle annually draws a large field for its straight and reasonablly flat course that attracts some high class athletes and club runners alike. Ten Keswick AC runners made the short journey this year and after a week of very inclement weather, Saturday itself was largely a day of respite with just a few blustery showers and a crosswind in places to focus the attention! A good time was had -well done all who turned out.
