This week, my spirits lifted, my heart soared and I felt as if I had achieved nirvana. Nah, only kidding. The weather was dismal, the resolutions are all broken, the extra weight has not shifted and its still two weeks to payday. But on to the results… Valley parkrun: Neil Campbell 21:01, David Esler 26:35,…
I was going to start by letting you know my new year’s resolution but, as I’m already perfect, I don’t need to make any. But good luck with yours. Maybe its to get faster, whilst still filling yourself with alcohol and cake. But on to the results… Race Over The Glens: Held back on New…
Folks, with so much going on, your weekly news report is a long one so you might as well grab a cuppa now. Your humble reporter made the brave decision yesterday to delay the report so that all the NYD parkruns could be included. Why, oh why? Yesterday, I was a year younger, less ill…
Well, twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. Mainly because we were all watching Die Hard and eating Quality Street. Hopefully you have recovered from Nuala’s Santa Run or the Grew’s mulled wine or whatever running you managed this weekend. Despite what you…

Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful. And since we’ve no place to go, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! Apologies for the late post but I’ve just peeked out of the igloo I’ve been living in since Friday. Doesn’t seem I’ve missed much though. The “celebrity”…
This week was dominated by a great performance from one of the club’s brightest stars. After last week’s false start, Jamie Campbell finally got to hit the tarmac at today’s Waterworks junior parkrun. Jamie was one of 5 Mallusk juniors running this morning: Waterworks junior parkrun: Joseph Eager (home in a very impressive 5th place)…
Xmas is coming and the goose is not the only thing getting fat as many Harriers seem to be preparing for winter hibernation. Local parkruns were hit by the weather for the first time this winter with only Stormont, Queens and Victoria left unscathed. Stormont parkrun: Danny Donaldson 20:33, Nuala Muldoon 23:49, Sir Martin McCready…
Another fun-filled week has passed in the life of the Mallusk Harriers. The club held it’s Handicap Race again and members headed off to races as far away as Athens, Fairview in Dublin and, er, Tollymore. So, onto the results: Waterworks parkrun: Matthew Cromie 20:31, Ryan Clarke 21:03, Robbie Gould 21:49, Stephen Semple 23:16, Patrick…
Well, Newsie has had to step down from reporting duties, allegedly entering rehab for a bad Shot Blok habit, so whilst he/she is incapacitated, you’ll have to put up with me. You’ve had the funny one and the poetic one, now it’s the bitter and twisted one. I’m the uncle nobody talks about, the one…
