| A SMALL NOTE: READ HISTORY FROM THE BOTTOM UP. |
| From "a group of friends out for a keep-fit run and a drink in the pub afterwards" the club becomes part of the Fylde running society. LSARRC joins the Interclub Grand Prix and competes with five fellow clubs and the Mid Lancs League to face a wider field of clubs from all over the Northwest at cross-country. The Club can no longer think of itself as "new", "small" or "developing". As a member of Lancashire AA, the NoEAA and UKA, LSARRC has now a full role to play as part of the wider running community. |
