Hello all,
It almost time for the second running of the Orchan Rocks Fell Race. This year it's on Tuesday 28th April, once again from the Staff of Life pub, burnley rd Todmorden.

You may or may not know I was knocked off my bike in December suffering various injuries (broken nose,fracture in neck, broken thumb, face and knee stitched up) 6 weeks after I fell harmlessly over and broke my knee. I am slowly recovering but won't be running for around 10 more weeks.
Anyway less about me and more about the race. With the help of friends, family and club mates from Tod Harriers ( who made the recent Flower Scar race such a success) we are still running the race. It's a quick dash of an AS race, with a lovely grassy descent to the finish. Everyone who did it last year enjoyed the route and hopefully over time it can become a local classic.
I have posted in the recce section of the forum with details of the first organised recce on Saturday 21st.
I look forward to seeing some old and new faces at the race.
Any questions just ask.
Dan
