The Number 73 April 2014
The Fellfarer No. 73.April 2014. Page 1 Number 73 FellFarerthe April 2014 Page 2 The Fellfarer No. 73. April 2014. Editorial CLUB OFFICIALS Up until a week ago this issue was going to be rather thinner than PRESIDENT: Gordon Pitt Tel: 015395 68210 usual. For a number of reasons (but mainly the unrelenting poor VICE PRESIDENT: Roger Atkinson Tel: 01539732490 weather I think) there seemed to be much less material than usual TRUSTEES Vicky Atkinson Tel: 07971 408378 Mick Fox Tel: 01539 727531 and, for the first time in many years, I started to plan a 16 page Cheryl Smallwood Tel: 01629 650164 magazine rather than 20 (obviously I can only work in multiples of 4). Mark Walsh Tel: 01606 891050 Having made that sad decision, I set to work on the layout page by COMMITTEE Chairman: Roger Atkinson Tel: 01539 732490 page and was nearing completion. Then the new Social Secretary 198, Burneside Road casually dropped into a conversation, “Oh, by the way, we’ll need an Kendal LA96EB extra page for the 80th celebrations again this time.” email: [email protected] I had no space to spare in the 16-pager and so the result of that little Vice Chairman: Mark Walsh Tel: 01606 891050 20, Knutsford Road bombshell was your editor staring at the screen wondering what was Antrobus Northwich going to fill the extra 3 pages. Cheshire CW9 6JW There was only one way: the whole magazine had to be laid out again. email: [email protected] Well, as you can see, I managed it. -

Morecambe Bay Estuaries and Catchments
Morecambe Bay estuaries and catchments The group of estuaries that comprise Morecambe Bay form the largest area of intertidal mudflats and sands in the UK. The four rivers discharging into the bay are the Leven (with Crake) and Kent (with Bela) in the North, and Lune and Wyre in the East (Figure 1). Fig 1. The four contributory areas of the estuarine system of Morecambe Bay in Northwest England (below) of the Leven, Kent, Lune and Wyre rivers (left). The neighbouring rivers of the Ribble and South West Lakes region are also shown1 The Leven and Kent basins cover over 1,000 km2 (1,426 km2 when grouped with the neighbouring River Duddon), the Lune 1,223 km2 and Wyre 450 km2, with all draining into Morecambe Bay between the towns of Barrow-in-Furness in the Northwest and Blackpool in the South. The city of Lancaster and towns of Ulverston, Broughton-in-Furness, Ambleside, Windermere, Bowness-on- Windermere, Grange-over-Sands, Sedburgh, Kendal, Kirkby Lonsdale, Ingleton, Carnforth, Morecambe, Garstang, Fleetwood and Blackpool lie within the basins. Leven and Kent basins: River Leven is sourced on both Bow Fell (902 m) at the head of the Langdale Valley and Dollywagon Pike (858 m) above Dunmail Raise. These fells comprise of volcanic rocks of the Borrowdale Volcanic Group that characterise the central Cumbrian Mountains. The source on Bow Fell is only 3 km from the wettest place in the UK with the Sprinkling Tarn raingauge recording 6,528 mm in 1954. Both tributary streams flow through Lake Windermere (Fig. 2) that is England’s largest lake with a surface area of 14.7 km2. -
2016 Helm Hill Senior Club Championship
Helm Hill Runners Spring Newsletter 2016 CHAIRMAN’S BIT—TIM MURRAY hanks to all those who have contributed to this newsletter……..another hectic start to T the year for the Helm Hill! Thanks also to everyone who helped out with another record breaking year in the Winter League. Great to see so many runners from Helm and other clubs enjoying this fantastic series of races. It looks as if we may have outgrown at least one venue (Fairmile) because of the number of people racing so if anyone else has any ideas for new races with good parking let us know! All the Winter League race organisers will be getting together soon over pie and peas (and possibly a drink) to look at anything we need to differently next year. All suggestions welcome. It’s been great to see the famous Helm Hill vest out in force at so many races this year…….the #greenmachine is certainly getting noticed particularly at junior and senior championship races. 28 runners made the trip to Car- nethy, 30 to Black Combe, 18 crossed the water to Ireland, 55 were at Loughrigg and 34 juniors raced at Todd Crag. If anyone is thinking of travelling to races for the first time, don’t worry, you will be in good company! Helm Hill members have also been involved in other exciting challenges. Well done to Carrie G for completing the infamous Marathon des Sables and Rowan R for completing the London Marathon in a great time. Good luck to Fiona P with her BG in June and the Helm Hill women taking part in the Billy Bland challenge later this year. -

Happy New Year
HOAD HILL HARRIERS NEWSLETTER JANUARY 2019 HAPPY NEW YEAR 1. EDITORIAL: Adrian Doesn’t time fly; it seems ages since Christmas and New Year. Judging by the new trainers, watches and head torches on view at the club, Santa didn’t let some of you down! Many of you have been alcohol free for January (it makes a change to see our club chair, Pete Davison sober, and his race times are improving now he can complete them in an upright position instead of crawling!) It has been interesting to hear how many of you who took up the challenge, and felt their running had improved. Also, congrats to those who have run every day in January. Many of you have started training programmes for the various Spring Marathons you are doing. Obviously, good luck and I hope all goes well and the weather doesn’t hamper your plans. There aren’t many reports this month, there are some from the end of last year, but the newsletter does contain a great deal of information I hope you find useful. Once again, many thanks to all those who have sent in reports and photos this month, it certainly makes my life easier, and hopefully produces an interesting read. If you have any ideas on what could be added to the newsletter, please let me know. In producing this, I try to keep everyone informed with what is happening at the club, both socially, organisational, and update you on running events/results. If any members compete in a race, know of any good races or have any views on anything, please feel free to e mail your article to me, Adrian at [email protected] - and I will include it in the next newsletter. -

Revised by Clive Hutchby Revised by Clive Hutchby Among the latter are Jack Woods’ recollections of his first visit to the Lake District, as a schoolboy in 1955, and Ossie Hopkins’ and Malcolm Pinder’s account of completing their 214 over seven decades – a venture that started in that same year (I do so like coincidences!). of Clive Hutchby’s revision of The Southern Fells Another excellent story is by Mike Birney, who and of a Lake District quiz book produced by a has completed five rounds of the 214, including Society member. A longer-term opportunity to one in true Wainwright style – travelling only by win prizes is given in the article on page 9 about bus (and shanks’ pony, of course). -
