An Introduction

The world doesn't need another running blog. It certainly doesn't need one by some entirely unqualified, overweight woman who harps on about a sport she is not only quite clueless about, but also rather inept at.

Tough-titties world, you are getting one. You are not obliged read everything on the internet and so feel free to move on, close your browser, whatever makes you happy. I shan't be offended.

Over the last few years I have cultivated an interest in trail and fell running. I am not an extremely good runner, and most of my races are the smaller, unremarkable type. But its a sport and culture I want to keep a record of, and to share. I'll try put up a mixture of race reviews, poorly knowledged technique guides, sources of information and inspiration and whatever else floats across my brain. It may be useful. It may not.

If you don't like my blog, but want to start fellrunning, then try https://www.fellrunner.org.uk/ .Take a look at their races, pick a category B or C, short or medium route, (probably not one in the lake district) take a look at their website and have a crack. They also have useful information about hypothermia and kit. Read it. Ignore it at your peril.

For the rest of you, I'll try impart my little knowledge and experience, and am happy to take vaguely positive comments and requests. Enjoy.
