Great effort again on organisation Halifax harriers. Results were:
1. Calder valley
2. Barack
3. Holmfirth
It was a great day out as usual. Fantastic spirits and thanks to all for their co-operation. Some amazing performances, not least those runners who ran the inter-counties yesterday and turned up to put in fantastic times today (Messrs Mounsey, Gray etc). Congrats to winners Calder Valley for a fast team effort and to Barlick, second this year. Maybe winners next? Incredible for a new club.

Top event as always, well done to Calder Valley for another fantastic performance. Great set of lads as well. Happy with 2nd and our time which we improved by 20mins!
Well done to our mixed team as well on their win.
Lastly thanks to Halifax and the marshals, brilliant organisation yet again. See you again next year!

I'm happy to report that a pair of Sale Harriers ladies running in a mixed team managed to beat the target time for leg 6 and claim the £100 bonus. Next year I think the men's leg 1 record is in jeopardy....those CVFR boys are getting close.
Huge thanks to the organisers and all involved at Hx Harriers for making the event happen, a massive task that's much appreciated. Big congrats to Barlick for making it a great race, future winners of the relay I'm certain.
Weather permitting I think sub 1:08 on leg 1 is certainly within reach, had we not both raced hard at the Inter-counties on Saturday I really think we could've gone close this year. Also, a fantastic run from the Sale ladies for breaking the target time on leg 6, a super run.
I'm looking forward to next year's event already.
Mlounsey, I think you'll do it. It's a shame that some of the other so called "top" fell running teams are still playing "take my bat home" and refusing to support the event (hello Bingley). Perhaps they are afraid you'll spank them. What you, Karl and Gavin demonstrated was that it is possible to come and be competitive even during the fixture packed month of May. Anyway, as you know, it is still one of the best days out in the calendar and enjoyed by the 90 teams that did show up.
All of the photos, including the finish, are now up on the Halifax Harriers flickr site. Some quite amusing images (hello Chewbacca)
