OTM 2022 Race 3 (17th Sept.) Review Perfect sunny, dry and cool (around 15c) conditions were provided for the runners of the final race of the series. Some of the front-runners waited with anticipation to see if certain speedsters (Billy, Katey etc.) would enter on the day once again. Whilst we had three join us […]
What was the fun run/walk for and where did it take place? As part of the ‘Linking Leyland’ charity fun day, raising vital funds for Leyland Trucks Helping Hand beneficiary charities (as listed below). The headline sponsor was the Rotary Club of Leyland, with TRB leading the organisation of the 10k fun run & walk. […]
OTM 2022 Race 2 (August) Review Following the first race in July (read the review for that race here), we went again with the second (of three) race on Sat 20th August. For race 1 we had 22 people register and 20 of them turn-up (two DNSs), for race 2 this had increased to 30 […]
OTM 2022 Race 1 (July) Review On Sat 16th July, TheRunBible hosted it’s first actual in-person event in the North West of England (after plenty of virtual and solo versions, during the dreaded recent pandemic times of 2020 & 2021).

Migo Mile for October October landed, and the leaves fell – along with the rain. With the clocks going back, there was some limitations on the amount of daylight hours that would be available to participants of the Virtual Migo Mile for October. This event was run as a virtual event like it was in […]
2020 has, easy to say, been a challenging year for us all. Whilst appreciating the severe hardships and, in some cases tragic events this year had brought to some people, I thought I’d share the somewhat trivial concerns of being a race organiser! I’d like to point out, I am most certainly in no way comparing […]
If you’ve ever entered a TRB event, you will know we give our runners plenty options. We know that you’re all individuals, and we want your race entry to reflect you. Not everyone likes a t-shirt, or a medal. Such things are optional extras for TRB race entrants. We’ve recently added Notches to our options, […]
A relay – through six parks – really? An overdue race report is better than no race report right? Well maybe.. Maybe I’ve missed this moment. A redundancy, a family holiday and a Garmin outage delaying teams results submissions are all the excuses I have lined up to use. And there they are, all used […]
