This was my first ever fell run after only having done flat 10k's and it was fantastic. I struggled a little with the steeper hills so just walked up those but flying down that hill at the end was the best feeling ever. Thanks to the organisers for a great day. Does anyone know of any similar runs that are coming up soon, around the Cheshire or Derbyshire area?

Similar runs you say?

Well, in the next few months there's Shining Tor (July) and Whaley Waltz (June, www.fellraces.co.uk)

Then there's Tegg's Nose in August.

Windgather (October and a bit longer but lovely route - www.fellraces.co.uk)

And if a mud-fest is up your street, the Roaches beckons in November, but is a good bit tougher than the rest...

And in November, the Langley 7; a fell race on tarmac!

I am sure there are more, but these I am familiar with...

Macc harriers have a friendly fell run every Wednesday evening somewhere in the area... have a look at the site (www.macclesfield-harriers.co.uk) and follow the calender tab. You'll find the Forest 5 in July there as well.

Enjoy

Good list of Derbyshire/Cheshire races here. Alternatively, join the FRA and get a list of everything.

There's also a new Fell Run (2nd year) from Langley Fete, on Sunday 27th June at 2.30pm. It's just under 3 miles up and down Tegg's Nose Country Park - 650' of climb. More info 01260 253692 or see Macclesfield Harriers' website.

Thanks to Alan and all the marhsalls and helpers for putting on this great run at the fete.
I also liked the Wincle Brewery beer tent!

and the trout tasted good on the BBQ as well

Not long to this one now - really looking forward to it! Weather is looking a bit dismal like last year's race!

Are there likely to be places on the day, or have I missed the boat?

Shall be going to the fete with the family anyway...

It normally sells out well in advance LR. Try looking at their website

Will be missing it for the first time in a few years. Being made to work on a Saturday is just plain wrong!
