Diary of a Wimpy Runner!<br />
As I write this there is just 18 weeks until the Red Rose 100 (EEK!)<br />
So the training has begun albeit slowly. Sundays are becoming the long run day.<br />
21 st December slightly hung-over we set off on the roads through Lower Darwen, up on<br />
to the Roman Rd and a loop round through Ewood, up Livesey Branch and back via<br />
Oakdale and it was lovely to be pipped at by Sarah Quinn at Ewood and then greeted by<br />
cyclist at the Golden Cup (Cath Fox).<br />
Sunday 28 th December was the Recce of the Dark’un and we extended the distance by<br />
running to and from the Royal. What a beautiful day it was, snow on the ground and a<br />
touch of ice to keep you alert, and I thoroughly enjoyed the nip of JD at finger post<br />

Rebecca joined us on 4 th <strong>Jan</strong>uary for a 12 ½ Mile steady jaunt over to Abbey village,<br />
through the nature reserve down to Withnell and up over Great Hill, through<br />
Roddlesworth Hall ruins and back via Cartridge Hill to the tower where we bumped<br />
into Sue Taylor and Russ Owen. And so back into the Sunnyhurst where Rebecca<br />
enjoyed a J2O as she is doing Dryathlon in <strong>Jan</strong>uary.<br />
Until next month …… Debbie Bevitt
