The Don Morrison Memorial Edale Skyline
Sunday March 27th 2011 at 10.30am
A big thank you from me to all those Dark Peak members, their family and those from other clubs who came to help at the Skyline on Sunday 21 March 2010.
An event such as the Skyline takes a lot of effort, and it was great to see the club pulling together to produce what was a great day.
For those who like to plan ahead, next year's race is Sunday March 27th. Fine weather guaranteed!
