STEW KNOWLES
ATHLETE OF THE MONTH
JANUARY 2026
Stew Knowles has been named our Athlete of the Month in recognition of his exceptional performance at the Brass Monkey Half Marathon in York. Producing an impressive time of 1 hour, 18 minutes, and 50 seconds.
This accomplishment carries particular significance for the club, as his time breaks the long-standing MV50 record, a benchmark that had remained unchallenged since the year 2000.
In addition to this milestone, Stew continues to serve the club with distinction as team captain for Wakefield Harriers road runners and as organiser of the Road Runners Distance League.
Well done Stew and we look forward to seeing what else you can achieve in 2026!
