Yeah, we saw quite a few Pennine relayers in the Royal after our run - there was talk of joint events like that being organised sometime. Kinder was totally midge free thankfully. However...there was some dampness*Quote:

Ooh a joint event would be great idea. I saw quite a few Glossopdalers in the Royal last night.Quote:

And, if you work in Hale, there's Altrincham And District AC. We do track and field, road and fell. You'd be welcome at Timperley Track 7pm Tuesdays to find out more. Ask for Don.Quote:

Lantern Pike Fell Race was my first fell race. I remember Ricky Wilde won it, but i still remember the realisation dawning on me that i was way out of my depth, which wouldn't have been difficult in those days as i'd have been out of my depth in a bird bath in the fields back then.Quote:
