Runner of the month would be Chris Joliffe – amazing sub 2 Barcelona Half Marathon- Chris is an inspiration after recovering from his stroke he has totally changed his lifestyle and his running progress and distance is amazing, he has gone from strength to strength and he goes out of his way weekly to support Progression Group 2 each week as well as fitting in BRR runs and loads more well done Chris – a true gent and an inspiration to us all

Member of the month in my view Wayne Rushworth supporting Gill and running the Barcelona Half Marathon with her and he is always there cheering people on and supporting others, and his contribution to the Hyndburn Park Run re development and clean up is brilliant giving up his time for a great cause

ROM – John Hannan for his Pendle Ultra
MOM – Nicola Murphy for her inaugural stint as Run Director

Nickie O’Hara

Runner – Lynne Knowles. She has been amazing this February, but Lytham, Barcelona you name it she’s come on leaps and bounds since I’ve been with the club.
And February has easily been a stand out month of hard work and achievements, going strong and only going to get stronger – Keep going Lynne !!!

As for the – Member of the month, I think this easily has to be Nicola Murphy. Her dedication, hard work, teamwork, support, and great organisational skills bringing the Winter Warmer 10K 2020 alive and making it the success it has been – well done Nicola and true inspiration and definitely set the bar

Runner, Alex Curran, a fantastic runner, smashing his times every race and a real helpful lad too.

Member, Nicola Murphy, awesome winter warmer, put it all together for us and I didn’t see her lose her cool once. An amazing effort.
Graham Jordan

12. My nominations for this month’s awards are:

Runner: Reanna Taylor for running a 47:55 PB at Stanley Park 10k. An absolutely superb time and improvement and I know she’s working hard on her training plan.
Member: Jane Matthewman for all she does for the Winter Warmer.
I know Nicola Murphy will deservedly receive lots of noms for being the run director, and I nominated her last month for all her hard work, but for me, Jane is the unsung hero of our Winter Warmer race. She tirelessly answers tonnes of entrants’ queries in a friendly & timely manner whilst also having a full-time job, she sorts out all the numbers with John Schofield, makes sure everyone who wants a place gets one, ensures number pick up on the day runs like clockwork and a million other things that we don’t have to think about because she just quietly gets on with them. The Junior registration is a doddle for us, because she literally hands over a pack full of stuff that’s been expertly prepared to make things quick and easy. She really is a font of knowledge and experience and I think the race would be much poorer without her.

Thanks,

Kate Rippingale

13. My nominations are:

ROM – John Hannan running Pendle Way in a Day. What stamina he has to be able to cover that distance in those awful weather conditions. An inspiration to trail runners. Well done John.

ROTM – Michael Clucas
Flying past a local club cool as a cucumber in Barcelona to finish with a PB gets my vote with an awesome time in Barcelona. Mega kudos to John Hannan on his massive achievement completing Pendle in a Day in tough conditions.

Member – Nicola Murphy
I saw the amount or organisation and prep that went into the Winter Warmer by our Race Director . She pretty much missed a week of paid work in the run up to make sure it all ‘ran’ smoothly. It was like clockwork and enjoyed by all competitors and volunteers- making tweaks to Johns phenomenal foundations. A really awesome effort done quietly and without fuss- making the uninitiated think the job is easy!!! Again a massive mention needed to a member who went above n beyond in Feb, Wayne Rushworth who volunteered to help Hyndburn Parkrun on his own lay paths when they put a request out!

Runner – I make no apologies as I nominate my son Michael for his phenomenal performance in the Barcelona half. Once he said he had overtaken a couple of Blackburn Harriers in the race and they had a double take that just made my weekend,
Member – Again I have to declare an interest but I nominate Nicola Murphy for the way she has taken on the WW. We had record profits and the manner in which she picked the right people to lead the teams was a great move. Pacing Teams were perfection and the best bag drop facility at the WW ever.

John Clucas
