HIT THE TRAILRACE

2 min read

THANK YOU to all 256 of you who lined up and took part👏

The event helps support our Club and the majority of the proceeds are donated to The Friends of Reddish Vale.

We were worried the wintry weather may force another cancellation however it held off just long enough and gifted us with the most beautiful Winter back drop!

After a year's hiatus, ♣️Hit The Trail♣️ was back to kick start a new year of running!

Thank you to UK Results for our timing, AP Sports Photogrpahy for our stunning photos!

Most importantly we would like to thank all our Volunteers/Marshalls, we are a fairly small club but our members really do show up and your support is 2nd to none! Without you none of it would have been possible!!

Lastly massive shout out to Race Director/Club Chairman Jim, you did an amazing job co-ordinating everything and everyone. We all appreciate the hard work you put into organising the race and also the running of the Club.
