Hope the hand gets better, it's not your drinking hand is it;)

Now you're Capt Fruit! :eek: My hand? My left one. And as I'm left handed I'm struggling to use scissors, nail clippers, write and change gears when driving. Bloomin' wrecks. :(

Don't call me a fruit;)

Cowberry
Cloudberry
or the very rare
Bog billberry (only 1 know plant in the peak)

I might take payment for guided tours of wrecks and plants in the dark peak;)

Must buy one of those Dark Peak Wreck volumes.
Might be a long distance run connecting them all together.
Think I'd be a wreck by the end of it.:D

30min trot out (gentle, like) as recovery from Sat. Found myself hobbling along, bloomin' painful quads. I wonder if RoadRunner's managed as much? :p

there is a Dark Peak (club not area) wrecks race although I don't think it has been run for a while, I'll try and dig the course out.

It can't be any harder than tonights race Broomhead bash ,
head high bracken, cliffs, streams, vertical cloughs, knee deep heather.

Hand sore from dragging my self up steep banks of Bilberry. Desperate :D

Not a long course but loads of route options non of which were good.

took me just over the hour for 6 miles :eek::eek:

Datt, I think you secretly LIKED this race, you protest too much! ;)

Sounds like an ordeal, glad to have missed it truth be told. Nice steady 7 miles in the rain this morning on the way back from dropping the car off at the garage. Much more sensible. :p

5k on the roads early this morning in fine drizzle and a bit quicker than yday - Club training night to follow tonight.
