A fair few things going on this week. The weather appears to have actually decided that summer has arrived, the flowers are out, the birds are chirping, people are running on the hills without falling into massive bog monsters (mostly) and there are smiles on the faces of the racers. Mostly, though, everyone is enjoying …
Well then. I have to say that there have been a lot of winter miles going on over the past few months – and by crikey, GDH appears to be flying along both socially and in races. Fabulous to see so many people out at the midweekers, but it ain’t just about racing you know. …

Ah – well after last week’s epic report, I’m glad to say that you guys are giving my bloody stumps of fingers a bit of a rest. Thankyou. Some people have been out running, others have been racing, I’ve probably forgotten people, and others haven’t posted to facebook yet. Thanks to Paul, Helen and Jo …

Easter weekend! Chocolate! Cake! Sugar! Snow! April Fools Day! Yes, it was indeed. I decided to wait until it was Bank Holiday monday before typing this out just in case anything was actually a bit April fools day-esque. It wasn’t, but at least it meant that Sunday evening was quite restful. Hope you all had …

Jeez. I know there were some weekends where I didn’t write much because all the races were cancelled, but crikey, do you all have to do quite so much?! A veritable smorgasboard of bits and stuff and races and suchlike this week. I’ve tried to keep it as short and intelligible as possible, but really, …
What happened there then? There we were, quite happily mooching our way through a few warmer days, the sun was out (occasionally), the lapwings and curlews were coming back the moors, daffodils were up, and pigeons were making out on the lawn. The east wind came back with a bit of a vengeance and a …
Well we appear to have had a relatively productive early March now that the ridiculous amount of snow has blown away and/or melted. An active weekend was had by a load of you, either racing, reccying or training for various bits and pieces and things. Now theen, where shall I start? Edale trailrace Skyline Matt …
