nurse tutor (pictured in 2005) has also raised hundreds of pounds for charity through sponsorship and usually chooses to support a different good cause each time she com petes. This year the Clayton- le-Moors Harrier is running in aid of the Alzheimer’s Society and anyone wanting to spon sor her can ring 01282 776042. Miss Garnett took up run
ning in 1986. A quick calcula tion reveals that she has run at least 4,000 miles since then while training, not taking into account the other races she competes in. Said Miss Gar nett; “I s ta r t training in December and run about 30
miles a week then I gradually increase the distance so by the end of February I run around 40 miles and up that to 50 miles in March.” She secures her spot in the
London line up in the “good for age” category. Last year she said her time was excep tional as she completed the 26 miles 385 yards in four hours and 30 minutes. She added: “I won’t be as fast this year because I have not managed to do the same amount of training. If I get round in under five hours I will be pleased.” Miss Garnett says she loves
running: “I enjoy running and it also provides a marvellous opportunity to raise money as well. I sometimes do other races in the summer, shorter ones and I did the Dublin marathon in the autumn because I wanted to do one to celebrate turning 70. It was wonderful, because Dublin is such a beautiful city. I com pleted that course in four hours 31 minutes and I did that race just for fun.”

MONTHLY meetings of the local branch of the UK Independence Party (UKIP) are attracting growing num bers in Clitheroe. Meetings at the Swan and Royal pub

p.m. “Everyone is welcome to attend to
