Monday 29th April - 2019 Wincle Trout Recce

Meet at Danebridge (by Wincle Brewery, Grid Ref SJ 965 651) ready for a prompt 6.30pm start for a recce run of the 2019 Wincle Trout route.

The route is different to previous years as it goes through Lud's Church and has more height gain. We will be doing the river crossing. 

The pace will be normal D Trail Group pace. Trail shoes best.

The route

Saturday 27th April - Pym Chair

Well the weather wasn’t kind today! 9 Runners decided the best thing to do on a Saturday morning was to run round Goyt Valley accompanied by Storm Hannah and enjoyed(?) an amended 5.5 mile route from Pym Chair to Fernilee Reservoir & Windgather Rocks. Well run everyone & hopefully you will have dried out in a couple of days. Not many pictures due to the weather.

Saturday 20th April - 3 Shire Heads

Today 11 D Trail runners got out t-shirts, hats, shorts and sun-cream and headed off for a 5.5 mile circuit of Wildboarclough and Panniers Pool starting from Clough House CP.
As it was Easter there was an Easter egg hunt ...but despite excellent navigation skills the eggs were not to be found - their disappearance remains a mystery.
The run was rewarded with lots of 'Rocky Road' (thanks Ali) - good running in very hot conditions, and well done to the 4 runners who did an extra 7-8 training miles by running home afterwards.
