Lingmell Dash 22 July 2006

The Lingmell Dash fellrace took place this Saturday on a very hot day. The runners left the Head on the MRT's main fundrasing day and the fees went towards the days total which is looking set now to top Nine Thousand pounds !

The fourth annual Lingmell Dash on Saturday 27 August 2005 went well. This year we had 20 runners which we hope will gain again next year as the race becomes more established as a permanent fixture on the fell-running FRA calendar.

This year's clear winner was Mike Robinson of Dark Peak runners in 46.46; a well-earned victory for Mike who is a regular supporter of the race. Yet again CFR blues and whites were out in force and second place went to Brian Thompson in 51.24, followed by Rossendale's Brendon Taylor in 53.53. Rob James of CFR had a good race (54.37), followed by team-mate Irving Block in 54.55 knocking a tremendous 4 mins off last year's time.

Lindsey Buck was first lady in 69.45, a new course time for Lindsey who is in good form. Second lady was R Murray from Howich who had an impressive run.

It was good to see runners supporting this fund-raising event for the Wasdale Mountain Rescue Team from all over the country including, Liverpool, Ambleside, Arsenical as well as from Cumberland fell runners.

This year the race was started by mountaineer Simon Yates, who stayed and gave an interesting lecture and slide show on his last expedition to the Yukon. The talk was attended by over 100 people and was widely enjoyed in the atmospheric barn of Row Head farm. Two of Simon's books were auctioned raising £60 which contributed to the valuable fund raising day.

The total raised from the day was £800 and a big thank you goes to Simon Yates, Howard and Kate of the Wasdale Head Inn, Tim of Lingmell House, Jim of the Barn Door Shop, Guy of the Wasdaleweb and Heather and Andrew from Row Head Farm for all their support.

See you next year on the 22 July 2006 for the next Lingmell dash
