    What's the parking like for this one? Is the LC and School best place to go for parking?

    The Leisure Centre is the best spot but fills by about 10.00am.

    There are other options organised so just follow the marshalls instructions and you'll be fine.

    Have a great run Pinno, you'll love the course (for a tarmac one!). Hold back for the 1st mile though as it's so tempting to fly off as it's on a slight downhill and then flat.

    Just back

    Ben Lindsay 1st in 29:55 and Helen Clitheroe 1st in 32:32.

    I got my target of sub 40 with a 39:12 so happy with that.

    The race seemed to go off super, being traffic free for the first time. Extra toilets laid on as well.

    Any forumites with feedback, I'll pass it on.

    Just been browsing prov results. 2 potential winners did not start. Quite a few no shows looking at pre-entries/finishers. V40 prize for Mr N

    Yes - that "V" has certainly helped his pocket money!

    A very well organised race today and well worth doing.

    Pleased with my time although had hoped to be pushing the sub 40 time today for the first time. Ended up with a 41.56 being unwell for a week a two before Christmas has not helped plus the volume of food consumed over the festive period.

    Race looked like it had a few no shows today?

    Great race although I found it a bit harder than i should; too much xmas food! I m missing from the results though. It says on the provisional results to email any errors. Is that to schofield or blackburn harriers?

    Well done to Blackburn Harriers !!! Superb organisation. I was a spectator this year and saw how well things went. Some very fast girls and boys there today. Results were out quickly so there may be a few errors but cannot think of anything negative to say.

    Just hope the residents of the Ribble Valley don't get too critical if they were held up for a few minutes.
