John Carberry has suggested a downhill race if
we can find a hill suitable for the task.
Rick emails from USA to say
"John Carberry has suggested a down hill race if we can find
a suitable hill? I think Clayton used to do a guess your
time run on Pendle that was basically and gently downhill" 24th Feb

Bob Clayton use to do a down hill
race from the cairn on top of Pendle to the pub at the "Nick of Pendle"
I remember it well as I received the Bob Alexander trophy for my efforts one
year This was by default of course - a certain Dave Simpson got completely
lost and came back by road!! I at least completed the proper course having run
off piste for a while to chase catch and bring home safely Malcolm
Richardson (a roar runner who was new to the fells) and heading for
disaster. To this very day I have been unable to convince the fell lads of
this perhaps the web site will put the record straight and exonerate my
navigational skills Brian
