The Fab Five ⛰⛰⛰⛰⛰
The lengths some do for cake or free beans on toast is amazing. So much so Tony Dicko and Mark Humphreys jumped on last minute to join Linda Guru Greengrass, Paul Cope and Amanda Holman.
Along with some drunk Santas they completed one of the toughest marathons in the UK.

Miler's of the Month!
Congratulations and well done to our October Miler & Mini Miler of the Month winners, Bhavna Mistryand Nathan Healy.
Bhav is our little 'Mouth from the South' who helps promote and support the club through various channels. If she's not racing you will find her marshalling instead and taking wonky selfies with teammates and those involved. She has trained well through October and completed Snowdonia marathon in a great time of 4hrs 29mins.
Nathan has improved so much over the last few months, his confidence has grown as well as his stamina and technique. He’s always entertaining and can gab the hind legs off a donkey.
Well done again Milers 💚💚

Isabelle Livesley won our Mini-Miler of the Month with two great performances at the Mid Lancs League in July and scored lots of points for the club. She has pushed herself and has given her all in every race and at training.

Well done to each and everyone of the Green Army!
Well done to each and everyone of the Green Army!
Seems like it's been a quiet day for the Milers today?
From Milers making their debut at parkrun, a few cheeky parkrun wins, a big turnout at the Mid Lancs Athletics with adults and juniors smashing records, those crazy mountain goats out on the Snowdonia Trail Marathons and just those banking the miles...it's been a great start to the weekend.
May's Miler's of the month awards!
With many racing last week we held our announcement for Miler of the Month until today. Well done and congratulations to our May Miler of the Month, Hayley Smallman Was Sinclair and Mini Miler of the Month Ellie Dobie.
Ellie has impressed the coaches this month by really pushing herself in training on both the Wednesday and Friday sessions, leading from the front and always giving 100%. She also paced her younger brother to a cheeky win at a recent mile run (run for 96) in Stanley Park, allowing him to take the plaudits.
Hayley is one of the most inspirational people you can meet. She recently completed her first marathon at the RnR weekend, raising money for Claire's House where she also live streamed a message every mile to a child who recieves treatment there. Balancing her training as well as looking after her family was a real challenge and she smashed it.
Hayley has just recently visited Buckingham Palace for a afternoon with the Royals and in particular Prince Harry. Together with other inspirational parents they have started a campaign, #NOTANURSE_BUT, who have become full-time carers for their children whilst providing medical care despite not being nurses.

This weeks round-up news from the Milers
When racing mere mortals isn't enough then you have to look further a field for a greater challenge.
This weekend our chairman, James Warburton, took on Man V Horse. A 22-mile trail race that saw 650 runners pitted against 60 horses and riders. Rumours surfaced that My Little Pony even beat James to the finish line but that is yet to be confirmed.
Not to be outdone David Jones also raced a steam train. Race the Train was an 11-mile run from Bury to Rawtenstall. Friends and family ride the train shouting encouragement to the runners along the way. Great effort lads and certainly something a little different.
A massive well done to all who took part in the Decathlon 5K in Warrington, also to Joe Chedgzoy who was taking part in the NHS 5k and came 5 overall.

Well done to our January Miler & Mini Miler of the Month, Jennifer Houghton and Mia O'Connor.
Jen is the female captain and has had a terrific month setting pb's and club records in 5k, 10k (twice) and half marathon. She is always at every event rallying the Milers female team and to be honest deserves this and more for putting up with Kenny and David's stick all the time.
Mia is one of the hardest working Juniors we have. She will always stick at it and keep going no matter what when others would easily break. She doesn't let anything faze her and we even had a marshal commend her effort and commitment in a race recently.
Well done again girls 💚💚

#runandtalk at Croxteth Hall Parkrun. It's good to talk.
This week Croxteth Hall parkrun in association with the Kirkby Milers hosted Run and Talk.

The Kirkby Milers Mental Health Ambassador, Danika Leahey teamed up with parkrun to raise awareness and this is what Time to Talk Day is all about – giving us all the chance to talk and listen about mental health.
We will shortly be announcing when our run and talk will happen on a more regular occasion.

You might also recognise Gary as the motor behind Ben's Buggy Runs or from his top dancing at the Xmas party.
Femke has been training very hard and giving 100% at everything. She has surprised her coaches with trying cross country and was even disappointed to miss a race while being away visiting family.
Well done again Milers 💚💚🏆🏆
