Three Lytham members made the journey to Coniston on Saturday. Gillian Oliver ran her first ever trail race, the 10k, in 1:35:54, Chris Bowker and Greg Oulton opted for the longer 15k race, Chris finishing in 1:22:06 and Greg in 1:46:34.
The 10k started and finished along the same route as the 15k, diverting somewhere along the way for the shorter route and approximately 1000 feet of climb. For the 15k... Starting by Coniston Old Hall and running up through the town before going off road for most of the route, the race included some steep climbs and a total of just over 1400 feet of elevation gain. Finishing along the lakeside, with some stunning views and lots of run able stretches a race worth considering again next year.
