Many thanks to everybody who turned out at Fountains Abbey this morning to support the Nidd Valley 300 in their bid to achieve an aggregate time of under 2 hours. We did it! Official times are: Dave Seaman 24:23 Robert Hill 24:58 Tony Ledwaba-Chapman 27:24 Alan Harby 36:01 Total time 1:52:46 I think we are […]
Here’s a quick look at last weekend’s efforts from Nidd Valley. The unseasonably warm weather played a huge part in making it more difficult than usual for our marathoners in London on Sunday, but thankfully everyone made it over the finish line safely! Parkrun There were some new PB’s achieved this weekend at various parkrun’s […]
Hi All, First of all I would like to say a great big thank you to all who turned out for the Park Run at Fountains Abbey last Saturday. Wow! How amazing to have so many black and gold vests there. Everyone played a wonderful part in making it so special. We had the youngest […]
Thirsk 10 Those club members who love the flat tarmac were chomping at the bit for this one – the race had to be rescheduled due to the early spring snow, so the almost perfect running conditions last Sunday was a welcome relief for everyone taking part. The flat and (for some) fast course was a delightful trot […]
This coming Saturday 14th April sees Round 3 of our club road champs and the excitement is palpable! The race is at Fountains Abbey Parkrun and is the shortest and easiest of the season so well within everyone’s capabilities. The run starts at 9:00 as usual. It doesn’t matter whether you are chasing points in […]
With our takeover of Harrogate parkrun on Saturday and Guiseley Gallop on Sunday, we have been pretty busy as a club over the Easter weekend. The weather and mud played a huge part in the weekend’s events, and many of us took a while to get warm again after Saturday’s exposure to freezing rain while […]
26 Nidders took part in today’s Guiseley Gallop. Full results are here
Good evening everyone, it’s been a busy couple of weeks on the racing side of things (unless the snow caused races to cancelled/rescheduled) so we’ll crack on with the results. Hopefully I’ve included all the Zip to Zoomers in the Dishforth results but I appreciate some folk don’t use social media – if I have […]
Parkrun It’s been another great weekend at parkrun for NVRR with several PB’S being achieved. Firstly, well done to all the Zip to Zoomers who ran at Harrogate on Saturday – I understand that they all improved their times. It just proves what achievements come from hard work and determination, well done to you all […]
Parkrun Another Saturday, another parkrun – we just can’t get enough of our weekly 5k fix. As usual, most Nidd’s were at Harrogate and there were some PB’S to be had. Matt Wilkinson managed to secure a 2nd place finish with a time of 18:10, while Nigel Scaife got himself a PB with a time […]
Parkrun Once again, runners from the club have been far and wide this weekend at various parkrun’s around the UK and Ireland. Sylvia Morten completed her 50th parkrun in 31:25 at Harrogate on Saturday, while birthday boy Robert Hill was at Finsbury parkrun, and finished in a time of 26:31. Colleen Gruenwald was up at […]
Fell Relays, Llanberis It’s fell relay time again, and the elite NVRR fell masters made the trip to Wales for this event which no doubt involved some mud and hills. Catherine Barber, Alan Davidson, Edoardo Piano, Simon Harris, Mark David, and Emma David made up the team, and they all had to tackle different legs […]
Withins Skyline We’ll start with the fells this week as there is plenty of tarmac bashing later on in the results. FRP was at Penistone Hill, Haworth as the only Nidd taking part in this mud fest. This muddy race was 11k with around 300m of muddy climbing, muddy streams, muddy paths, and mud. Phil […]
Knaresborough Crag Rat Run This was the next short race of the club champs, and it was a great turnout from Nidd to support our friends the Knaresborough Striders. There was much discussion beforehand over the matter of trail or road shoes for this one, but trail shoes seemed to be the preferred option as […]
Parkrun Harrogate once again had a huge turnout of runners for the Saturday morning slog on The Stray. Nidd had 23 taking part, and Hasabo Hasabo continued with his excellent form finishing 4th overall in a time 18:57. Nadine Wilkinson also put in a storming performance and managed to get herself a PB – she […]

Andrew Johnson got himself a PB by finishing […]
Vale of York Half Flat, fast, and local – just what you want for a Sunday half marathon in September. Three of our club runners made the short journey over to Sherburn In Elmet for this potential PB bagging event that attracted over 1600 runners. First back for Nidd, and continuing with his good form, […]
This week’s results, another jam packed weekend. Please let me know if I have missed anybody out or other races that have gone under the radar. Tholthorpe 10k A flat and fast course, plus the promise of a race branded cup for a finishing prize, was more than enough to temp 18 Nidd’s to try […]
Sessay Swift First race mentioned this week is this fast and flat 6k race near Thirsk. We had an impressive 21 runners make the trip to Sessay, and first over the line for the club and 8th overall was Matt Wilkinson, in a time of 21:13. He was followed by Alex Patrickson in 21:33, then […]
…Everyone is very excited of course and so should you be. There’s gifts-a-plenty in this your weekly round-up, of races past, results present and dates yet to come… Running in a winter parkrunland… At Harrogate it was Centenary celebrations for Martin Lofthouse as he completed his 100th run in 19.01, from the Nidd contingent only […]
