Message from Pete the President re Mick the Chairman ( Don't forget you both now owe me two pints a piece).

Great to see that Mike McLaughlin is attempting the Bob Graham round this year. For all those new to fell running this is a great event to support one of our own members on it is very exciting so the youngsters would enjoy it. Lets book the mini bus and get some great support for our great Fellblog Chairman.

 

This Month's Competition

Find Pete Benson on our Handicap Route

Pete Benson's secret training hit problems in December 

when he limped off the track During the Guess Your

Time Annual event, with a painful foot injury. 

The latest is that he will be back soon. Can he be fit 

enough for the 2005 Fell Season? He says so! Watch this space.

For the aficionados, this picture was taken on Great

Hill, on part of our Handicap Race Route . To be a little

more accurate it was at GR 633191.(Very close to

where Joe Howard limped out of the Handicap in

Spring 2004).

See below maps for further location aids.

Area where Pete was training

HE WAS JUST DOWN THE HILL A BIT FROM

TRIAL SHAFTS BEFORE "FB"

This is about as high that it will blow up.

Blow up any further, we might pick out Pete.

The above maps were by way of some experimentation. Since Joe Howard told me that he'd seen some route of a race on a map as above, but with flashing dots to show the route. I'm hoping to get to that level before I die. (Then Ash is taking over, I've got it recorded Ash, & there were two witnesses).

If you have any ideas or complaints for this site please send them to our Chairman.
