If you find yourself running with someone who says he is employed in the medical proffession ......... quickly find another partner, the former is almost certainly barking mad
Don't roll with a pig in poo. You get covered in poo and the pig likes it.

Some great advice on here. Maybe just an idea to dish out a free sheet when someone joins the FRA , suggested first races etc, just a thought.
The article is now published in 'Summit', The BMC magazine, it will be available on line but not for a while, called 'Uphill Battle - An introduction to Fell Running'. BMC members should recieve their copies today week or early next week.
They gave us 3 pages in the magazine, and some big photo spaces, so very happy with it. One photo is wrongly labeled as Foel Goch when it is the Gey Corries, but that could be our fault, not sure.
Just been reading it. You got the centre pages so prime space. Good read and nice picture of you and the dog descending Yr Elen.
With regard to the incredible records bit - my knees ache just thinking of descending from the summit of Tryfan to the A5 in 8 minutes!
Cheers, that's why I included that record, the others are quite well known, but anyone who knows that terrain knows how good that is. Mike's our builder, we know him through the club though. It used to be a race, stopped for safety reasons, Mike broke his wrist chasing his record, but still made the road in something like 8:30.
I can do it in 15 minutes or so. The first few drops are quite high, I lower myself down them.
