Hades Hill

[Brummy John]

The course was exactly the same length as last year, 4.6 miles. Blue skys again, good turn out and loads of prizes. Looking forward to seeing the results (although I didn't have a great run).

101 finished - possibly the high entry fee put people off

The above link should lead you to some photos of the event, apologies if it doesn't.

Brummy John, sorry, not the most flattering piccy!

Great night for this race, with really good weather and great views of Rochdale. Well done all, good to watch from the top of Brown Wardle.

With regards

Is that possible?

yes you'll be able to see on April 19th once you've been well beaten by Keith Hills team of finely tuned athletes

I found this description of the people in Rochdale:

Rochdale was the home of hippies, utopians, acid heads, exotic dancers, quotient dancers, bikers, flower children, acid heads, American draft dodgers, Portuguese draft dodgers, feminists, communards, lost souls, found souls, kids, Krishnas, irritating primal screamers, irritating ordinary screamers, slackers, slickers, grifters, grafters, acid heads, and drug dealers of every size, shape, disposition, and level of intelligence and style.

containing this quote:

"At Rochdale we feel more like we do now than we did before we came."

Gaz I couldn't work out how to view the piccies. Probably just as well if its a bad one of me.

Re Rochdale, Birthplace of Anna Friel and Lisa Stansfield. Richard Head is it true that Thora Hird is your home town lovely?

That i would imagine is a description of the old Ashfield Valley Flats....where the expression the University of life was very true.
