Age group victories registered by Harriers at Bolton Abbey
There were some excellent age group victories for the Halifax Harriers who took part in the Run Bolton Abbey race.
The event is always a popular choice amongst the Harriers and they had a team of five travelling to Wharfedale to take on the 10-mile course.
James O’Rourke was the first Harrier home and the sixth place finisher overall in a time of 1:20:40.
His time also put him in first place in the MV50 category, with Will Carver joining his clubmate as an age group winner and the first MV45 finisher over the line.
The Harriers’ women also raced well with Jenny Hopkinson winning the FV55 category, and Margaret Deacon and Kirsty Carver finishing the 10 miles in highly respectable times.
Meanwhile, Carver celebrated a milestone at Shroggs Park when he chalked-up his 250th parkrun.
Supported along the way by some friends from the Harriers, he completed the Halifax parkrun 5k course in a super speedy 22:26.
Carver is now on a growing list of Halifax Harriers who are clocking up some big parkrun milestones.
