Midgley Moor Fell Race | Wilmslow Half Marathon



34 Todmorden Harriers made up more than a third of the runners in Calder Valley’s Midgley Moor Fell Race. Lucy Burnett, Kath Brierley and Jane Leonard took the ladies team prize with Tod men Ivan Gee, Ben Crowther and Paul Brannigan finishing second to Calder Valley.

Ivan Gee in his post-injury comeback race was inspirational in being first veteran home. The V70 prize went to the current English fell champion Richard Blakeley and Kath Brierley completed a trio of wins taking the Ladies V50 prize.

The unmarked course caused problems for many runners and wrong detours were the order of the day.

Pacemakers are common in track racing, but special mention must go to Mel Blackhurst competing for the first time since having her very own pacemaker fitted. Recent recruits John Allan and Kirsty Patten had excellent runs with John finishing 23rd and Kirsty 11th lady. At the other end of the scale it was great to see club stalwarts Neil Hodgkinson and Darren Graham return to racing after lengthy lay-offs.


Husband and wife Jon and Bev Wright raced in the extremely popular Wilmslow Half Marathon. Jon finished 36th of 4000 runners with Bev in 1786th.
