Sunday:- Calderdale Relay.
So no Calderdale Relay. The snow has mostly gone, much faster than I’d expected. But Saturday’s meltwater had frozen overnight, and tramping the near Relay moors today, north facing slopes were very slippy, and lanes etc extremely icy and slippy. Cancellation was a good move in the end, but for different reasons. The decision was made, it should be accepted, and now move on….
High Peak Marathon:- Carshare wonders if certain members are going against club expectations and getting too organised? It’s 4th/5th March 2011, after all?
"Now that the Russian Roulette for entering to the HPM is over (decide for your self which side of the gun you were on) my team is already a member down, possibly two. So we are after a strong runner to replace Adam Perry (I told you you needed to be strong) and possibly/probably Mick Stenton. We were 3rd last year and are looking towards a top 5 if possible. Requirements are for a good team player with a VGSOH, some Navs skills are useful although this is not important, we are neither age-ist or sexist so welcome all comers. If a top lady would like to try take a prize off the Farmers Wife team we will even consider that, even though it may cost me some considerable grief later. So if a Jon Morgan or a Janet McIver are interested in throwing their name in drop Ian Winterburn, e-mail ,a line. The decision won’t be made until the new year but if any one is interested let me know.
(Andy Moore need not apply as this gets you an automatic ban from the Organisers……..)"
