Charlesworth and Chisworth Challenge
3 mile Fell Race 8th July 2000
Counter in Club Championships
The winner of this three mile race was Paul Targett of Clayton-le-Moors, the
North East Lancashire Club, in 23 minutes 33 seconds, half a minute
ahead of Daniel Oldham, an unattached runner. The going was softish
and the times slowish but the atmosphere joyous.
The shock of the day must come from James Vincent who is not yet fourteen and
yet left many experienced runners behind. Finishing 22nd in 27
minutes is no mean achievement to whizz round the skyline round Coombs
Rocks from Charlesworth village playing fields. Certainly the
organiser Bill Deakin and Glossopdale Harrier Rob Poole were both impressed not
to say shocked !!
The race was part of the Carnival and the fun atmosphere pervaded the
runners, with a smattering of novices and unattached having a
go. Thirteen Glossopdale Harriers turned out and Frank Fielding, the
first vet over 40, was their first home in fourth position
overall. Nuala Bardsley was the first lady finishing in sixteenth
position, consolidating her recent good results.
