2012 race schedule with some gaps filled in

Running friends and work colleagues think I have more weekends free than I have. On the one hand I'm being offered suggestions for more races to fill my spare time, while on the other I'm being invited abroad for customer visits when I've got nothing on (how very thoughtful that they should consult my personal diary when planning business travel, though ;-)

I think it's time to post an update. Red means Runfurther series. Blue means Hayfield fell race series. There will be plenty of LDWA events to fill later gaps, depending on mental and physical health.

  1. Busy as ever I see Nick.
    Thought you were laying off the computer time a bit. Your reports seem better than ever.
    I see a few more Fell races on there than usual. You'll be getting some speed yourself with those. I may venture up and run a few.

  3. Wow that's some list! Didn't realise it was the 50th Fellsman!! An extra special year in that case and very pleased I'm gonna be part of it. Just 2 weeks until my first 100m of the year!!! Excited and apprehensive about what awaits. Gonna love every second ;-)

  4. Hi Nick, I don't know how you manage it! An amazing race calendar. I'll see you at the Classic Quarter and at Coniston in July. All the best with the year.

  5. Simon you're right and I'm naughty. Trouble is there've been too many amazing winter outings and new experiences and I can't resist it. The post-race pictures and blog are all part of the pleasure.

    You've got a point there Mike. I'll have to slot that one in somehow when I know the date.

    Stu you're getting a head start with that early 100. I wish you success.

    Thanks Stuart. I'll see you at both of those (at least).

    Coniston, UC? Sunday evening in the pub again?
