Coniston Entries:- Does anyone know if it’s actually full yet? I’ve put a S.A.E. with the entry and heard now’t. Jon Morgan, e-mail, has “ been away doing 9 days ski racing in 3 weeks in the Alps , but, Ooops, have clearly missed the Coniston entries. Can I get a substitution if anyone drops out please? Didn’t do too well compared to the continentals, but did clock 88kmh on my GPS watch on one of the descents, so it felt exciting enough. Luckily home in one piece (there was the odd open fracture) so looking forward to the Skyline.”

Mystery Mike’s Gloves:- A kindly lady, Holly Rea, sends “I was out running on Stanage Moor a couple of weeks ago and I bumped into a Dark Peak runner called Mike who lent me some gloves. Unfortunately I have had no-one to pass them on to in order for him to get them back so I was wondering if there is an address I can post them to so that I can get them returned to him? e-mail “
DT – so who’s this gallant gloveless runner, with cold fingers presumably? Hopefully he can regain those gloves, and also reveal his identity?
All is revealed, our gloveless hero is Mike Browell..” I confess, it was me. Blizzard on Higgar and met this cold lass who stroked my yellow dog and shivered so much I gave her my Buffalo mitts. Now cycle racing in South Africa at 40C!
gloveless of course”
