The second Inter Club race of the season was hosted by Lytham Road Runners. A slightly shorter course was necessary with work being done on the sea defences at Fairhaven. The 4.6 mile course was covered by just over 400 runners, 133 of which were Red Rose Road Runners. In each team category, 4th positon was the best we could manage apart from the V60 team of Joe Swarbrick, Ken Addison and Ray Taylor who took second place. Our three highest positioned men were Simon Croft Phil Marsden and Matt Holmes with Samantha Edwards, Jan Rayton and Laura Houghton the best of our ladies team. Times for all Red Rose appear at the end of this report.
