Congratulations to Ben Hunter who has completed all 214 Wainwrights. Munros next… or the Ethels, perhaps!
Burbage Skyline – As per the News item, this year’s race has had to be cancelled. Paul Fauset, the outgoing race organiser, has put in a sterling effort over the last eight years or so and is to be succeeded by Dominic and Delia Watts.
