    Wink Darwen Gala Fell Race

    Hi all,

    Is it to early to plug this race

    Saturday 18th August - Bold Venture Park Darwen - 2.30pm

    3.7 miles, with 930 feet of climb

    Also Junior Races with Prizes for U14, U12, U10 & U8

    All the trophies are back (almost)
    The prizes are mounting up.
    The sponsor is promising something different to T-Shirts and Mugs.
    We clash with an English championship race - Weasdale Horseshoe
    Our neighbouring/supporting club Lostock are all away on a camping trip.
    Its Sedbergh Hills the following day.

    Am I going to be the only runner that day

    Thanks
    Jamie

    Oh and there is a gala and beer tent.

    Im also a great public speaker so the presentation should be a comedy of errors.

    So if you want to see a grown man struggle pop along

    The over 55s was a bottle of wine. I've drunk the wine but I can bring a bottle back if you like!

    Hope you are keeping that change at the road crossing that you made last year. Those steps are lethal if it's wet.

    Yes sorry about that slight diversion last year.

    You were'nt on for the course record where you?

    Point noted about the steps, I was up there today.

    Cheers
    Jamie
