Posted by admin in News & Results on April 29, 2010
Details of this year’s evening League Races are now available from the HDSRL website.
This first race at Ilkley also included a sealed handicap race for the OAC Club Handicap Championship.
A great turnout by OAC members – 47 in total – results and photos from harrogate-league.org and hopefully some more photos soon in Club Photos.
Well done to everyone who took part and our thanks to Ilkley Harriers for hosting a superb evening.

Saturday 17th April – Really Wild Boar Fell Race
Posted by admin in News & Results on April 17, 2010
Report from Andrew Robertshaw:
I did the Really Wild Boar Fell Race (5.5 miles / 1,400ft) on Saturday organised by Gary & Debbie Devine.
I finished tenth (44.10), a little disappointed and a bit heavy legged on the climb to the summit from my endeavours in Northern Ireland the previous weekend.
A small but quality field was won by Ian Holmes (Bingley) in 37.47 – a new course record. Results from fellrunner.org.
