Black Knight Charge 2025
Our very own Black Knight Charge 6 mile and junior 2 mile race took place on Wednesday 23rd July 2025.
It was a brilliant evening with a fabulous turnout. There were 178 finishers in the senior race and 31 in the junior race.
Ex-East Cheshire and now Salford’s Ryan Worland won the senior race in a very quick 34.35 in wet conditions. East Cheshire’s Brandon Kenyon-Betts had a tremendous run to finish 2nd in 35.43 and just 17 years old. Michael Mannings of Oldham & Royton was 3rd in 36.40. Lucy Wasinski of Glossopdale Harriers took the women’s race in a dominant win with 43.00. Maisie Baker (unattached) was 2nd in 47.52 and Tanya Williams of Rochdale Tri Club was 3rd in 48.09. East Cheshire won both the male and female team awards.
