I checked my watch, 39 minutes. Jo had been on my shoulder at the beginning, Owen had been ahead but dropped-out, Penny had nearly caught me on the second-lap hill but I now felt safe. I reckoned a couple of minutes and we would be back on the canal tow-path…
The version according to Mick Fairs This is a long tale but I’ll try to keep it short. After being picked up from home by Peter C and Steve D at 5.15 we turned into Kings Road where a long queue had formed due to an accident. This set back…

Thursday, 5th July. The rain lashed against the car window. It was thirty minutes till the start and just time for a warm up and a quick recce of the course. I pulled my vest on and opened the car door – freezing cold! I jumped straight back in again…
Sunday 8th July. 7.1 miles, 1200ft. About 17 degrees. It’s a tragedy that barely 50 runners made it out for what must be the best hill race in Cheshire (in my book a close second only to the Boars Head race from Higher Poynton) – and so close to home…
