John Bassett was first home for the club at the inaugural Wirral Way Half Marathon. The route will took the runners along the old railway route. It started close to Hooton train station and finished at the Wirral Country park, with the turnaround point being Cubbins Green. The route has some varied terrain, sandy track, grassy track, stony trail and was fairly flat. Jan McArd was first lady for the club in a personal best 01:58:57, great running after a tough cross-country the previous day.
