A very pleasant day for racing in Lancaster, with unexpected sunshine early on and thunderstorms later for the 20‑mile runners. The results are now online on our newly updated results pages, offering improved accessibility and faster navigation whether you’re viewing Events or individual Races.
We’ve also refreshed our race certificates with a new design and styling — perfect for anyone who wants to keep a memento of their run. Certificates are available for all races so far this season and go towards supporting this site.
Thank you to everyone who came along today and made it a great day of running around Lancaster.
We are pleased to announce a new website — RaceRanks.
RaceRanks has been created by Billy Gardner of Lancaster Race Series and Steve Ashcroft of Shoestring/UK Road Races, bringing together race data from across the region. The site provides a clear look at this season’s races, personal bests, club runners and your own race history.
We have further plans for the site as it grows and will continue adding races into the future, making RaceRanks the home for ranking results.
Visit the Website https://nwraceranks.ukroadraces.co.uk/We also have more exciting additions coming soon, so check back regularly for updates.
Due to the previous venue closing, we have had to move location to the George & Dragon LA1 1RB
Same start time of 11am. See you all there!
A wonderful race today with a fantastic turnout for an enjoyable course and a very worthy cause. Even with the brief toilet queue, everyone set off on time and the atmosphere stayed positive throughout. The results reflected the brilliant efforts from all runners across both races.
Thank you to everyone who came along and took part — a pleasant day and great running all round.
A wonderful, warm day with a great spread of runners across each race. The 10K and Half Marathon brought tough elevation challenges, making it a long and enduring test — but one to be proud of.
Thank you to everyone who took part; a fantastic run and one to remember.For those fully committed to avoiding the nerves of England’s Semi‑Final — or simply not interested in the football at all — Scorton offered the perfect alternative. It was a warm and pleasurable evening in the village, and the runners made the most of it.
A lovely mid‑week race, enjoyed by everyone who chose miles over matchday tension. Thank you all for coming and well done to every runner who took part.
A wonderful midday run in Bentham, with warmer weather perfectly matching the beauty of the surrounding countryside. The course delivered a tough challenge, but runners embraced it with enthusiasm, making for an enjoyable and rewarding event.
Thank you to all runners for taking part — your effort and spirit made the day.
New galleries added from the Calder Vale Supper Run, Forton Fun Run, Midsummer Fun Run and Pet a Goat. If you have race photos you’d like to see included, please email shoestring360@gmail.com — approval will always be sought before any images are added.
A wonderful summer evening in Calder Vale for the 3.8‑mile Supper Run. The village atmosphere was very pleasant and runners enjoyed great conditions out on the course. Plenty of strong, steady performances throughout the field made for a really enjoyable event.
Thanks to everyone who took part — we hope you enjoyed the run and your supper.
