21 senior members and one junior member of Denbigh Harriers travelled to Llandudno on Sunday 13/02/2022 to run The Nick Beer 30th Anniversary 10 km race. The race starts on the prom, climbs up and around the Orme on the old toll road, drops swiftly down on the other side of the Orme to Church Walks to finish back on the prom. The weather was better than was forecast although there was a strong headwind impeding the customary dash down the Orme. The Harriers returned home with a haul of medals and trophies. The ladies’ team consisting of the three first Harrier ladies home – Melina Morris, Alaw Medi Evans and Emma Collins were the First Ladies’ Team out of 11 local running clubs. Melina Morris was also first female over 45, Emma Collins first female over 55. Fred Jones was third male over 65 and Menai Baugh third female over 60.
