Nicky Spinks

Fell running · Located milestone age 35–36

Penistone club awards record her as its female club, fell, and cross-country champion in 2003, aged 35–36. She later completed the Bob Graham Round during Dark Peak's June 2005 weekend in 23:33, aged 38. Neither result is established as her first qualifying proof.

Two timelines to investigate

Capability and practice

Farm upbringing and office work; resumed recreational running at 19. Her 50th-birthday account and the Joss Naylor challenge register support birth on 22 April 1967. Retrospective interviews date road running to 2001 and her first Trunce fell race to 2002; she recalled finding the race while training for the Great North Run by October 2002, but its exact date is unverified.

Earlier background from a sourced screening correction. Practice start, development dates and earlier level have not been established.
