The OMM 2015

Mountain marathons. Just when you think you’ve escaped their clutches, you end up doing three in one season.

James doesn’t like surprises, but he perked up when I revealed that we had downhill bikes booked for the day…

Rab Mountain Marathon 2015

I decided it was time to test myself at a more traditional mountain marathon and do one solo. There were mixed results.

Will I ever tire of Cwm Idwal? No. No I will not.

Our Saturday started there after a breakfast rendezvous…

The Long Tour of Bradwell is a 33-mile race I’ve seen advertised over the past few years, and always wondered whether I’d be able to run that far or not. After a decent showing at the Marmot 24, I decided it was time to give it a go.

Marmot 24 – 2015

24 hours to reach as many controls as possible; I think that counts as my first ultra?

Great Hucklow Fell Race 2015

The route of Great Hucklow Fell Race looks relatively benign on the map, but it’s been disproportionately difficult both previous years I’ve done it.

Accidental Ascent

I accidentally ran over the Glyders. Then deliberately ran around Great Hucklow.
