This traditional new years day race saw 7 members enjoy a sunny but chilly morning running to Captain Cooks Monument and back to Great Ayrton. Ray Oliver and Andrew Whiles led the initial dash (for the club) from the village centre to the steep climb up to the monument....

The latest races in the Hardmoors series saw six intrepid souls venture out into a cold and frosty Winters morning. Myself and Pam were tackling the longest route (around 30 miles) which meant an early start so that everyone had the chance to finish before it got too dark despite...
