Afternoon All,
Well, its been a busy day for quite a few Nidders, with actual races at Elvington and others running the COVID version of the London Marathon.

Phil Robinson is also offering an exciting off road, head torch run.
Thursday 8th October
As an additional option on Thursday evening, Phil Robinson will lead a 6 miles head-torch run from Brimham Rocks. You’ll need a decent head-torch (spare batteries would be a good idea) and trail shoes. He can guarantee you’ll get wet and muddy and that it’ll be a bit rough underfoot. You never know it could turn into a bit of a mini adventure too! Please meet in the entrance to the Brimham Rocks car park (double yellows) at 6.45pm and he’ll guide you to the parking spot. HG3 4DW.
Please allocate a bit more time than usual.”
