Setanta Ireland Rogaine 2012

Wednesday, 27th June 2012

This is the third time we’ve ran the Setanta Ireland Rogaine; the lure of running/orienteering for 24 hours without stopping is somewhat attractive, but it’s not just the challenge that draws us back to Ireland, it’s also the bizarre and random things that always happen when we cross the Irish Sea. This year was no …

Olympic Torch in Bowness-on-Windermere!

Friday, 22nd June 2012

The weather might have been dreadful, but there was no stopping the Olympic Torch relay and the awesome Olympic celebrations in Bowness this evening!

Carnedd y Filiast

Friday, 22nd June 2012

Having spent the first ten years of their respective climbing careers in Ogwen, you would have thought that Terry and Bernie would have already climbed everything they could.

Summer Evenings

Wednesday, 20th June 2012

Just one more venue…

So, this morning I tested out the very convenient Dosthill Quarry, just on the outskirts of Tamworth. The quarry is a diving venue (http://www.divedozzi.com/), but …

Bagging my First Munro

Monday, 11th June 2012

Tom and I enjoy dinner and sunshine at the mid-camp. Lying down was probably a necessity at this point!

The 2012 LAMM: beautiful scenery, hard work, terrible midges, and my first ever Munro summit...

CC Gairloch Jubilee Meet

Wednesday, 6th June 2012

Thanks to the extra holiday the four day jubilee weekend made for a perfect opportunity to head a little further afield than a normal bank holiday weekend allows.
