Last month we featured internationally renowned Creative Designer Harvey Gardiner from Kibworth Harcourt (read the full article here). He had submitted a design for a bronze statue of Agatha Christie for Torquay Harbour. Nearer to home, Harvey has also designed a large monument for Leicester Tigers (Rugby Football Club). The monument commemorates the 53 Leicester Tigers players that died in the Great Wars and the remaining 36 players currently known to have survived. 

It’s been ‘spring growth’ for the club with club members enjoying their outings with the Leicester League.

Derby Runner Cross Country League

We always like the start of the year. It means we can start our countdown to the new season. Lots of things are happening to get things ready for our new cricket season.

With the shortest day behind us it almost feels like the worst of winter is behind us too.

Fleckney and Kibworth Running Club is offering a nine week ‘Couch to 5k’ course.

It’s been another fruitful month for the club with three new members joining us (thank you, Kibworth Chronicle.) Club members continue to enjoy the club nights as well as regular open sessions on Thursday mornings from 9.30-11am at Fleckney Sports Centre (18 years and over).

After the Autumn Marathon and Half Marathon season we’ve had a much quieter month for races and events. It’s now time for the mud lovers to get involved with the Derby Runner Cross Country League underway.
