Nuptials and nature – 10 June 2026
What a glorious evening! The air (possibly Arctic) was clear and the views were extensive; it was claimed that even Pendle Hill could be seen. Of course, that was not our only impressive sight. Closer Read more
Great weather in Snowdonia for the Elidir Fawr race. Only 4 Dark Peakers in attendance, Lloyd mentioned that I was the third team member, no pressure on me to perform and not let the team down! Lloyd won by a clear margin followed by Es in fifth. This was first my proper mountain race of the year following an injury earlier in the year and I was pleased with my performance. The route is straight up Elidir Fawr followed by a steady descent back into the valley, great route and one not to miss. My kids took part in the junior race, with William winning a prize for the U8 and Iona winning the 12yrs category.
