Four members of Wallasey Athletic Club have each picked up a first place in a race series.
Proving that age is no barrier, the four Wallasey runners each struck gold by winning in their individual age categories ranging from under-20s to over 65s. The Borders League series of seven road races is an inter-club competition held between November and April. The races vary in distance between four and six-and-a-half miles and attracts in excess of 200 runners from Cheshire, Wirral and North Wales.
Wallasey Athletic Club, which also has a strong ladies section, meet on Tuesdays at 6.l5pm and on Thursdays at Harrison Hall in Wallasey Village.
