The Mens Team of Lucas Payne, Sam Watson and Gareth Hird finished 5th, followed by Peter Keron, Jason Hemsley and Marcus Rae in about 8th position.

Kirkby Fell Race - All Our Yesterdays
With this race coming up this weekend, it is perhaps interesting to once more go back into the archives to have
a look at what happened ten years ago. Below is the race report together with a report from the Sharphaw race. The results
are also available for viewing.

Kirkby Gala - 4 July 2009
A quick glance through the results shows even more new faces sporting a Wharfedale shirt. The club had 29 runners out on the day,
made up of 12 seniors and 17 juniors and this appears to be far more than any other club. The fact that we are continuing to attract
more youngsters is not only good for the club, but it will also be beneficial to the youngsters themselves as the competition between
them will mean that "they will bring each other along".
With such a large number of runners, it is impossible to mention each individual by name, but the notable performances were that Ellamae Gibson was the first girl in the U12s and Jonathan Bradshaw, fresh back from his International in Germany, held off Tom Doyle and Tom Sessford to win the U17s race. The juniors had several second places too. Will Smith was 2nd in the U14s boys race, Nicole Narey was 2nd in the U14 girls and Lloyd Davies was 2nd in the U12 boys. In the U9s, Robbie Johnstone was 2nd boy and Lucy Horrocks was 2nd girl.
Thanks to sterling work by BOFRA webmaster Tim Done, the full results are now in the results section.

F R A Relays - Sunday 18 October 2009
A note from Tamara HirdThe 2009 British Fell & Hill Relay will be based at The Leaps, Kirkland, nr. Ennerdale, West Cumbria. The Fells are on the fringe of the Lake District and are often by-passed by the hordes of Fell walkers and Fell runners, but are well known to West Cumbrians. The rolling grassy fells are of unspoilt beauty and make a perfect setting for the Relay. The terrain is not rugged, thus the running will be fast and not too technical. By contrast the Orienteering leg will be a tester!
Location: Ennerdale Show Field, The Leaps Kirkland GR 087184
Eligibility: The Relay is open to all Clubs affiliated to UK Athletics. Each Team will consist of 6 runners and all runners must be first claim members and over 18 years of age
Routes:
All of the relay legs are covered by Outdoor Leisure 4 map. Maps will be provided on the day.
Leg 1: AS Solo - 5.8 m/1500ft estimated winning time: 40 min
Leg 2: AM Pairs - 6.7 m/2500ft estimated winning time: 60 min
Leg 3: Orienteering Pairs - 5.6 m/1410ft estimated winning time: 60 min
Leg 4: AS Solo - 5.1 m/1600ft estimated winning time: 40 min
Time: The first leg will start 10:30am
We have entered a Mens team and a Ladies team so far. If any ladies would like to run - please contact Tamara Hird on 0795 1129786 or tamarahird@hotmail.co.uk. If any men would like to run - please contact Gareth Hird on 07535 700585 or garethhird@hotmail.com. If anyone would like to organise a Vets or another team (we are allowed up to 4 teams), then let me know ASAP and I can organise the entry.

There were quite a few good runners at this race, including a lot from the local clubs. Ricky Lightfoot put in another of his sterling performances to win the race with more than a two minute lead over second man, Nick Sharp of Ambleside. Against this background, the three Wharfedalers who went up to the Lakes for this 9m/2700 ft race did very well. Sam Watson seems to be showing no ill effects from his injury at Weets, Cathy Bradley seems to be thriving on longer distance fell races and there are no reports of Keiron falling over.
The finishing times and positions of the Wharfedalers were as follows:
- 16 Sam Watson 1:21:18
- 95 Cathy Bradley 1:41:54

More pictures from Wasdale, this time of Judy and Kirsty climbing out of Styhead.
Wharfedale had so many junior runners out at this event, that it is not possible to mention them all. However, on looking at the results, it is striking how many times our youngsters took the first two places.
In the U9s, Robbie Johnstone was first, followed by Adam Gibson. In the U12s, Charlie Lowrie was first and was followed home 2 seconds later by Oliver Whyte. Ellamae Gibson was first girl. In the U14s, Will Smith was first, followed by Ben Johnstone and Nicole Narey was first girl. In the U17s, Jonathan Bradshaw was first boy. So it was a clean sweep for Wharfedale in the junior races, with a young Wharfedaler winning every race. Well done to all our youngsters. They have done the club proud.
In the seniors, the race was won by promising local youngster James Mountain who just held off Brendon Taylor. First Wharfedaler, Ted Mason, had to settle for third place in a race which he won ten years ago and he finished just ahead of Sam Watson who continues to improve.
Full results are in the results section.
It was a lovely night for this event which is held in a lovely setting and it is an excellent cross country course. There are no results available for posting in either the senior or junior races, but the the first places of the seniors race were:

He has had offers from help from within the club, some of which are not yet firmed up and other offers were by proxy - "oh he'll help". He would like three supporters for each leg.

Wedding Bells - 11 July 2009
Those of you with good memories may remember Tim Stedman competing in the Ilkley Moor Fell race, carrying a ring round the course and proposing to his fiancee afterwards. Well, Tim doesn't mess about and the happy day was 11 July. All of us at Wharfedale Harriers wish Tim & Hannah all the very best for the future and hope that they have a long and happy life together.
A few special memories were captured on camera and the happy couple would like to share them with us.
