Wednesday, 27 June 2012. Cragg Vale Fell Race. What a cracking little race. I got stuck in traffic on the way and thought I was going to miss it. I thoroughly enjoyed this one. A mix of tarmac, trails, trods and tussocky bogs and a great downhill finish.and it didn't rain! I managed to get a dip in the river after and the the tea and cakes hit the spot nicely. What a shame I forgot to apply my midge cream; I have an array of red splotches that are going to drive me crazy over the next few days! The first...

Monday, 29 July 2013. THE BOB GRAHAM ROUND - General Round up, thank you's and a nod to rice pudding. Well it’s taken me a while to get round to writing this last part of my BG report, but better late than never! Now that I’ve had time to reflect and the reality of a successful round has properly sunk in, I know more than ever that l had a very special experience and one I’ll never forget. I was so tired and focused by then I cannot recall seeing her there. Ambrosia at Dunmail Raise. I had sat down on th...

The lasses ran clockwise and the lads ran anti clockwise, and Andrew and I met at the Beacon half way round. It was a huge amount of fun and the beer and feast went down a treat! The firs...

http://offcoursephalarope.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, 25 September 2011. Something different for a change! Having been off the scene for a while due to health issues (more about that another time) I decided a visit to the local Donkey Sanctuary. Would be of benefit. I've been staying with my parents in Devon whilst recuperating and Andrew has come down for a visit and to take me up to Yorkshire to continue my recovery there. Donkeys are such gentle peaceful animals, and contact with them has a really soothing effect for anyone that feels in need of ...
