Thriving, social and supportive running club in East Lancashire where absolutely everyone is welcome

Everyone in the club has been really busy since our last post, so it's time to share some recent team achievements starting with the Relays.

First up was Yorkshire 3 Peaks Relay in April where both our Ladies and Men's teams were 3rd in their categories.

In May it was then time for the Calderdale Way Relay, where our Ladies team finished 1st Vets and 5th overall.

Not to be outdone at the Bradford Millenium Way Relays in June the ladies then came an amazing 2nd place 🥈

Well done to all those who flew the Team TAC flag, as well as our Captains for organising.

The Relays really are a great opportunity for the club to come together and we are keen to include as many members as possible. If you fancy stepping up next year keep an eye out for the Captain's shout out!

Whilst we look forward to seven of our members running the London Marathon this Sunday, let's celebrate two of our recent Marathoners; Ian who competed at the Milano Marathon and Brent who took on the Boston Marathon.

Good luck to all our Marathon runners this weekend; whether it's at London or Blackpool, we know you'll smash it!
