Kirkby Moor - 7.2m 1608ft - Sat 24th November

A nice friendly race put on by Black Coombe Runners from Kirkby in Furness. The start was a long steep tarmac climb from the village hall which leads out onto heather moorland with good views across the Duddon estuary. Fast going across the moor which could be difficult in poor weather though.

A bit longer than the 6.5m listed or maybe I just didn't get my route right. Mark Addison won emphatically ahead of a field of 101 but a handful of Keswick runners made the trip too.

1. Mark Addison - Helm Hill - 51:09
2.John Brown - Ambleside - 54:17
3. Bill Stewart - Holmfirth - 54:24
23. Andrew Slattery - Keswick AC - 62:40
32. Colin Valentine - Keswick AC - 64:53
75. Rachel Slattery - Keswick AC - 77:18
84. Debbie Thompson - Keswick AC - 82:01
