Rombald’s Stride:- is a LDWA event, with plenty of runners all around Ilkley Moor. Enough ice about, with people slipping : once again the justification for taking decent spare kit. 22miles, 3000ft was hard work for poor Carshare. Whilst wobbling up Otley Chevin near the end, Rachel whooshed past and disappeared from view. Most welcome support from Mr and Mrs Rachel and Rhys. At least my emergency train fare home wasn’t needed.
Jarrett Jaunt – another of Mike’s favourites over by Ennerdale.
Jarrett Jaunt – Indeed was Mike there, 6th place. Results.
Mickleden Straddle:- results.
Lad’s Leap:-
Charnwood Hills – does anyone now run this?
Weekend afterwards.
Long Mynd Valleys. Hoping
that Willy’s Carshare League can get off to a good start. It’s one of
the best AM courses going, and well worth the trip down. Please contact
Willy if you want to share, can drive, or whatever….
Edale entries….wot a surprise, it filled up fast….I can’t see much else that can be done, with enough places being held back for deserving runners….
Make sure to read all that stuff on the Skyline link, there’s essential things within. Such as “Full waterproof body cover cagoule with hood and over trousers – this means kit sold as waterproofs with taped seams. “
If it’s not waterproof, top and bottoms, best get shopping….
