With foul weather across the country there were wet conditions for the second English Championship counter at the Stretton Hills race.
Pippa has put herself in a commanding position in the English Championship with victory here added to her win at the Half Tour of Pendle. As a new event Pippa has set the standard and finished in 54:12, eight seconds ahead of Lizzie Adams (Dark Peak) and third lady was Anna Lupton (Radcliffe AC).
Jo was the only other lady out representing the Club and ran well to finish 37th in 1:09:04.
For the chaps it was down to Allan Buckley and John Rutter to represent Keswick AC and both did the Club proud. Allan finished in 1:22:38 and John 1:31:44. Well done all.
The men's race was dominated by Pudsey & Bramley and the overall race victor was Rob Hope in 44:37.
