Sushi.
A few I'd like to do.

Though I couldn't do one a week for a year.

Can you imagine if I asked for every Sunday off.

My colleagues would have a fit 🤣🤣🤣

I might not do one a week, there are some events on where I could do two in a weekend and have a week or two off for recovery then.

I'd still not be able to get enough weekends off Vixx.

Tend to work Sat and 3xSun in every 4 weeks

Hi Vixx

{steps out of lurk mode}

I don't think anyone has mentioned Rivington HM? (Just north of Bolton).

It's quite a nice one - part trail, part country lanes.

That's usually around October - you're going to be busy!

Sushi - Sunday is the only day off I have at the moment, but my wife tends to work it.

Hi Mushroom - I've done the Bolton Hill Marathon a couple of times, so Rivington would be good :)

Another small, mainly trail option is the Gin Pit Half in Leigh, near Wigan. Usually March time. The same race director has the Lion's Bridge half in July / August. I think the organiser used to frequent these parts but not sure if he's still active on the site. Malc26.2

There the wrong side of the Pennines for you ;) but the Yorkshireman Off-Road HM (Haworth) and the Holme Valley HM aren't too far from Salford in a straight line...
