kendal fell race

[mac]

please could all runners coming to this race ( gibson grind 14k trail race )
use the kendal college ( free ) car park access off vicarage drive
which is only 2 mins walk up to school on hawesmead avenue, as parking at school is at a premium.

Cheers..

Hi. Its run on Scout Scar which is open limestone country. Thin soil, grassy surface with lots of bits of limestone sticking out. Most of the race is on established pathways. Nothing very steep, but lots of steady inclines. Run from a school fete. Good fun. Good views. Well organised. Good prizes.

Thats one heck of a carbon footprint to do one race. Us fell runners aren't as loving of our countryside as we like to make out.

What a prize list. Presented by an MP. Well done Alec.
