For our Halloween Bake Off we had 8 amazing bakers and after lots of rigorous tasting and reviews our runners voted for their winners.

We are extremely proud that our women's vets team topped Division 3, pipping West End to the title, which means we'll be promoted to the division above for next season! In total 12 vet ladies competed:

Friday 13th September was our annual Standards achievement ceremony. Well done to everyone below for achieving a standard!

We believe running should be for everyone. There should be no barriers, no matter your age, no matter your ability.

Our runners have taken part in the first 7 LRRL league races, and with four left the vet women's team (that means over 40) sits in top position in the third division. The top two teams get promoted at the end of the season.

We are very proud of all of our runners, and love to celebrate some of their amazing achievements. Medals on display include those from London, Manchester, Newport, Brighton and Lake Garda.

Tonight some of our spring marathon runners met after Squirrels and we all shared a celebratory drink with them. Some of them even ran tonight.

Thanks to all our bakers Isla Ritchie, Sarah Anderson, Jill Prime, Katherine Anna, Heather Feather, Lorraine Keable.

We are really excited and proud that our runners now have the opportunity to represent the club and take part in the both the local cross country league, and also the Leicestershire Road Running League (LRRL).

Today a scurry of Squirrels have been down to Loros to donate the money raised from the Broughton Astley Dash & Dawdle. Despite the horrendous conditions on the day we managed to raise £800 for Loros. We also donated £150 to Broughton Alive to put back into Community events such as the annual carnival & light switch on.

A team of intrepid Squirrels (and our resident Westie) took on the Derby Runner XC this morning at Grace Dieu. Amazing effort by everyone on what sounded like a very challenging course in tough weather conditions! Well done all
