A top turnout by Middleton Harriers on Tuesday evening at the Andy O'Sullivan Tribute 5K at Cowm Reservoir. Great results with top 3 Age category placings for: Martha Urwin (1st), Lisanne Whalen (3rd), Rose Rowson (2nd) John Hall (2nd).

The long awaited return to competitive road running  began on Thursday night with the first of the 2021 Sale Sizzler 5K series. In hot and humid conditions Sharon Goldrick led the ladies home in an excellent time of 22:09 followed by Karen Hallet with a time of 24:02 (SB), Louise Butterworth 26:27 (SB), Catherine Murphy 27:58 (SB). Well done ladies!

Craig Sutherland came home in a time of 25:48 (SB).  The next Road Championship event is the Eccup 10 mile Race on Sunday 27th June.

The full results can be found by clicking on Road Championship page in the left hand pane.

Due to a major event taking place in Wythenshawe Park at the end of July, the organizers have been forced to change the July 29th date of the Sizzler  ‘Run With Olympians 5k’  to the preceding Thursday 7.30pm July 22nd.  This effectively means two Sizzler 5k’s on consecutive Thursday’s.

The Green Machines got off to a great start in the first Fell Race of the season at Saddleworth. The Cake Race is a tough 9 miler with 1700ft of ascent, 2 river crossings and a lotta lotta steps.  First Harrier home and 8th overall  and second M40 was Jorden Burke in a time of 1:13:42. The first Middleton Lady was Martha Urwin, 12th Lady and 2nd W45 in a time of 1:34:01. More results and photos are on our Fell page
