Buckden Pike English Championships Race -Saturday 15th June
The second race of the English Fell Running Championship season took place yesterday (Sat 15th June) at Buckden Pike in the Yorkshire Dales.
The short race was part of Buckden Gala, and took in 1594' of ascent over a 3.7 mile course that incorporated good sections of steep climbing and descent, and provided plenty of talking points once back down on the showfield.
There was a great turnout from the club (results below). A particularly good performance by the men's team saw them place fourth on the day, and after the first two English Championship races are now tied on points in third in the Team Championship.
A mention should also go to Lyn Thompson for a great performance yesterday. Finishing first LV55, Lyn is now well placed after two races of the English Championships in the lead of the Women's Vet 55 category.
The remaining races this season are as follows (below). Please get entered for the races now -we will need our best possible teams out to stay in the hunt for a bronze medal.
