"Commonwealth Games"

A great week away at the Games.

"The Scarecrow Run"

Great Monday evening off road run to loo at the scarecrows in Rainow as part of the annual village fete

"Kerridge Climb"

 A rather damper race than the last few years meant a slightly slower (excuses, excuses!) time of 14.28

Week 29. Weekly mileage 26. Annual mileage 649. Sessions 130. Races 24

"Couch To Forest 5"

Once again being the sweeper for the race gave me plenty of time for a chat with the backmarkers whilst enjoying great views over the Forest on a glorious summer evening

"Bollington Nostalgia Race"

Fell race three of the week (well more a trail race really despite 1200 feet of climb) and a return to the seven mile Bollington ace. A much smaller field than usual but again a good tussle with the lady from Goyt Valley Striders! Time 63.32.

Week 28. Weekly mileage 22. Annual mileage 623. Sessions 124. Races 22.

"Wizard 5"

The night after the wormstones race this was hard work but still managed a mid field position in 40:01.

"Wormstones Fell Race"

 

Fantastic mid week race out of Glossop, four miles, 1300 feet of climb equals hard work. finished right near the back of the field of sixty three hardened fell runners in around fifty minutes.

"Biddulph Valley Way"

Best tempo run of the year, Whitemore Nature reserve to Brunswick Wharf in 14.29
