You can start 2008 off with the Hangover from the Leggers Arms Dewsbury
Choice of 8, 14 or 21 miles - depends on how big your 'hangover' is!
After a canal bank start it's pleasant undulating countryside. Details

"Runners and dogs (with owners) welcome" - I don't have an owner:confused:
Sounds interesting, especially as i can bring my dog. Is it usually full, can i Enter on the day?
You can normally enter on the day - I've always done.
Cheers Epocian.
I did one of their events last year - it was a great day out. I think I will pencil this one in - usually loads of good food as well!!
It's winning me over from doing The 9 Standards i must admit.
Just noticed that the entry is still only a fiver and the pub serves real ales!!
I'll see anyone doing this later today, with required hangover. Happy New Year!
Hic!:eek:

Great event the frost firmed up what would have been a very muddy course in places = thanks tp everyone at The Irregulars
Might be tempted by the new version of this run/walk on New Year's Day, the 'New Hangover Challenge' - anyone else planning on doing it?
Looks like 10, 17 and 20 mile options this year - http://www.theirregulars.org/
Just me then......(for the 17 miler only!)Quote:

That said a pleasant 3.5 hours run in rolling countryside with plenty of mud and before the worst of the day's rain.
