Nice work by the moderator merging the threads. It suddenly mushroomed as I was working my way through it.

And another blog:
http://heightsofmadness.wordpress.com/
A mix of running (fell, cross-country and road), cycling and walking, as well as general chat about my books, Heights of Madness and Isles at the Edge of the Sea.
Must get round to these books - noted a a comment to your blog - so sad but so true.....
“By the headwaters of the River Findhorn, lies Carn na Saobhaidhe, the cairn of the fox’s den, arguably the remotest Corbett in the land… a vast, sprawling hill which I first climbed with my friend Peter Evans as part of a cross-Scotland walk many years ago… We couldn’t have imagined, in our wildest nightmares, that these hills could be taken over by towering metal giants, like something from an HG Wells novel. How wrong we were. As I lay by the small summit cairn and allowed the vastness of this wild landscape to percolate my own spirit I’m afraid I cried. I wept tears of frustration at man’s arrogance and greed. I wept tears of helplessness that people like me, to whom these wild places mean everything, couldn’t effectively fight the political/corporate forces that are determined to steal Scotland’s soul in the name of green energy. And I wept tears of genuine sorrow that my children’s children wouldn’t enjoy these places as I have done.”
I'd also like to give props to Nick's blog, some really great accounts of his adventures and great photographs.
Also http://laidbackfellrunner.blogspot.com/ written by our very own DazH, http://noels-training.blogspot.com/ written by our very own, er, Noel, http://sbrtrfr.blogspot.com/ written by my buddy Steve (SBrt) and http://teacake-kate.blogspot.com/ is a really great read from Kate.
Finally, http://thelifeandtimesofafellrunner.wordpress.com/ is by the Forum's Starsky, he needs to get his arse in gear and update it but it's a good read and will be interesting to follow as he makes his way around the English Champs races this year.
Be Humble. Sit Down.
Tks For the mention
Simon simgreen aka http://fellmonkey.blogspot.com/ Can actualy write in proper joined up sentences and paragraphs. Unlike me, I can just about manage to add captions to pictures.
He is also quite a handy fellrunner, much faster than I will ever be, grrrrr
Not that I am jealous.
:thumbup: for the other blogz he mentions. All very different and worth a look.
I update mine from time to time:
