A final reminder for our 40th anniversary parkrun takeover (I want to say 'cake-over' but I won't) raising money for Moor Time tomorrow morning!

There will be an 80's fancy dress theme, but this is by no means compulsory!

Moor Time is a fantastic local charity based in the town that provides outdoor experiences and activities for children and young people with additional needs. Their work helps people build confidence, improve wellbeing, learn new skills and connect with nature in an inclusive and supportive environment.

All money raised will go towards Moor Time's appeal to upgrade their disabled toilet facilities.

If you've never been before, parkrun is a free, weekly 5km community event. People run, jog, walk, volunteer, or spectate and take part at their own pace. Everyone is welcome, regardless of age, ability or experience. You just need to register on their website beforehand.

The run starts at 9am at East Holmes Field, Ilkley. Feel free to come along, enjoy the atmosphere and treat yourself to some homemade cake. We'll have a QR code available for donations as well as cash donations.

We'd love to see you there and help raise as much as possible for a brilliant local cause.

The scenes this morning at the Hermit as some Harriers set out on the first leg of the epic Ilkley Skyline relay to celebrate the clubs 40th anniversary!
You may spot a few dubious fashion choices as a nod to 1986, the year the club started πŸ˜…
Following the relay there will be an event upstairs at Vitello lounge. See you there!

πŸŽ‰ Ilkley Harriers 40th Anniversary Celebration – Tomorrow! πŸŽ‰

Just a reminder that our 40th Anniversary Celebration takes place tomorrow at Vitello's from 4pm, following the Ilkley skyline relay. 1980's fancy dress optional!

We'll be celebrating four decades of Ilkley Harriers with old friends, memories, photos and plenty of stories from across the years.

πŸ“Έ If you have any old photos, newsletters, race reports or other club memorabilia tucked away, please bring them along. We'd love to see them and share a bit of the club's history.

πŸ’™ We'll also be holding a collection for our chosen charity, Moor Time, who are fundraising to improve their toilet facilities and make the site more accessible for visitors. Cash donations are welcome, and there will also be a QR code available for anyone who would prefer to donate electronically.

β˜• There are still a few commemorative 40th Anniversary mugs available too.
Looking forward to seeing as many past and present Harriers as possible for what should be a fantastic afternoon.

Massive thanks to all the helpers and to the 466 finishers at Sunday's Pete Shields Ilkley 10K. It was a brilliant day with lots of money being raised for Marie Curie.
The race was won convincingly by Harriers' Matthew Thackwray, with Georgia Malir of Leeds City 1st lady.

Huge congratulations to Ilkley Harrier Shaunna Burke on summiting Mount Everest.
Earlier this year a number of club members joined Shaunna’s fundraising Everest challenge on Ilkley Moor.
Now to see that journey reach the summit of Everest is incredible!
21 years after first reaching the summit, Shaunna has returned to Everest while living with stage 4 cancer and raising awareness and funds along the way.
An extraordinary achievement.
Congratulations Shaunna β›°οΈπŸ’™
