Spring 2003<br />
Open Country Mountain Marathon : 12 October 2002<br />
Northern Lake District - Caldbeck<br />
(Report no. 2!)<br />
Yet again this gem of an event produced some fine sport amongst the <strong>Dark</strong> <strong>Peak</strong><br />
fraternity. Judging on Mike's ramblings in the Winter <strong>Dark</strong> <strong>Peak</strong> News it would<br />
appear that his efforts in chasing his son round the fells on this glorious day were a<br />
little too much for his grey matter - never let the truth get in the way of a fine story.<br />
And yes, there was much merriment (and smugness) at the demise of <strong>Dark</strong> <strong>Peak</strong>'s<br />
finest orienteers especially considering the leading <strong>Dark</strong> <strong>Peak</strong> team ran with 3 size<br />
12's and one size 9 Vi Walshes !!<br />

Cardington Cracker <strong>Fell</strong> Race : 1 December 2002<br />
9ml, 2600ft.<br />
This is one of the best AM courses in the Calendar, well worth the journey to<br />
Shropshire. Steep climbs over Lawley, Caradoc, in magnificent running scenery. With<br />
the carshare now working on the website, have a look which races people are going to.<br />
Can we get our teams out and beat some clubs on their home courses?<br />
