Interesting read. Great background info on many aspects of Peakland life plus some good routes for walking or running

Well, well , well. Rarely on Fetch these days (mostly because I do no running!!) and just happened to see a link to Fetch Fell Runners, which I'd completely forgotten about.

Anyway, my point of interest, for anyone who likes some serious reading, is that the latest book from The Dark Mountain Project contains a piece written about and by a Peak fell runner. And excellent it is to. That's all I'll tell you, you'll have to buy it or subscribe ;-) dark-mountain.net

I should be in the vicinity cheering the kids on, but my legs are smashed after the weekend and I think I might have to give it a miss. Are you thinking of a run out DT?

Ah. Leg 2 recce? It was hot up there today, we did a circuit from Newlands and I'm frazzled. Newlands Hause - Knott Rigg - Ard Crags - Scar Crags - Causey Pike, then back to Sail - Eel Crag - Grasmoor - Wandope - Whiteless Pike - Buttermere cafe - High Snockrigg - Newlands Hause.

Anyhow, that's why I'm not doing Jack Bloor :-)

Well, it's Wednesday and knowing what a modest lad he is, I doubt he's going to say anything so I will: Congratulations to FlyingFinn of this very parish, he completed the Joss Naylor Challenge on Saturday in a fast 12:22, I am still recovering from the emotional trauma of leg 4 !!

Well done Dave, outstanding :-)
