It was a very full week of athletics fixtures last week, but Wesham members largely kept away, perhaps due to the very high temperatures. Noticeable perhaps that the main event of the week was Tuesday evening in the Paddy’s Pole Fell Race, the next date in the Wesham Off-Road Championships. Tom Crabtree was the first Wesham finisher in 23^rd place over the 3.7 miles and 1102ft of climb, in a time of 33:45. Carl Groome came in 47^th in 37:48 placing 6^th M50. Steve Myerscough completed the course in 54^th position in 38:23 for 6^th M45, with Mick Edge 7^th M60 and 86^th overall in 43:26. Ian Nichols Hogg finished 89^th in 44:41; Kirsty Holland ran well to place 14^th female and 108^th overall in 53:58. Ryan Azzopardi was 110^th in 54:19; Sally Deacon 16^th woman and 114^th in 56:09 finishing 3^rd W55. Debbie Myerscough was 20^th and 117^th overall in 1:16:20, and together the Wesham ladies were third team.
