Club Activity Day - Sunday 22nd August
Well, what a great afternoon.
The sun shone, the Usain Bolt Challenge was overwhelming popular, the Hay bale races and Tug of War went down a treat and we emptied the BBQ so thank you for making this event a wonderful success. We had a fantastic turnout of 100 plus members with all ages of children coming along and taking part. The Club Shop had a good day's business, sorry that no vests were available, everyone had a good time and the Club may even have made a little money. In actual fact it just showed that good old fashioned fun doesn't cost the earth, I think the Club spent just £34 on the whole day! Thank you to everyone for making the effort to attend, I feel the format worked well and hope you do too, hopefully we can do something along similar lines next year. It takes quite an effort to put events like this on so my thanks go to Adrian Netherwood and the team of willing volunteers, some of who were even scraping the hay off the rugby field with their fingernails - real dedication. Our vest handover went really well so look out for the photo in the local press in the next week or so. We'll sort some photos for the club website over the next few days but I've attached one as a sample. Once again thank you to everyone involved. Martin Peace Rushton Shield 2010
After the Bingley Show trail race Richard Newman has opened up a good lead. Can the chasing pack of Mark Westman, Gordon Kaye, Bruce Duncan or Lisa Spencer catch him up. Will someone else rise to the challenge, still 150 points to fight for. The next opportunity for points is the Autumn Handicap (date tba - usually eartly November).

Bingley Show Trail Race
The Bingley Show Trail Race went ahead on Sunday relatively smoothly. For some reason the numbers were down this year but there was a good run from Keighley's Darren Brame to pip our own Chris Edwin and the old warhorse Paul Mitchell. Skyrac's Rebecca Cesar Desa led home Lucy Griffiths. In a field of 33 runners there were 5 over 60's led by Bingley's Stuart Thompson.
Thanks to everyone who ran and helped out. Martin Peace Bradford Park Runs
