    80th Anniversary

    According to my copy of "42 Peaks", we are just over 3 weeks away from the 80th anniversary of the original Bob Graham Round. BG set off at 1am on Sunday 13 June 1932. Thanks for keeping us all so busy Bob!

    BG was born in 1889 and died in 1966 - so he lived until 76 or 77
