So, I've been reading these forums for months now, trying to glean as much information as possible. I've been running about on the roads in Leeds for a few years, and on the moor in Ilkley and the Otley Chevin for the last year or so. I finally bit the bullet and last week I did my first fell race: Ilkley Moor.

I loved it. Tough short course. Nice atmosphere. Great fun. I'm here to stay. Looking forward to getting to know some of you as I run some more races.
