Grit....


Had a relatively quiet week with a couple of runs and commuting on the bike. We headed down to the Peak to stay with friends for the weekend for a couple of days on the Grit – to bring back memories! On the Saturday we all headed to the Roaches and had a great day mainly in the Skyline area, P ticked an E4, I managed a couple of easy leads and we saw a great plummet off an E4 – luckily he was absolutely fine and went on to get the second ascent of the route (yes at E4..!). Ali also made a couple of necky ascents so despite not climbing much at the moment her head is as good as ever!

On Sunday, P and Ali headed to Bamford while Si and I went out for a run over Chinley Churn and Mount Famine, bringing back memories of peak district running! I was exhausted by the end of the run, as Si is a hell of a lot fitter than I am! We then drove over to Bamford too, and met up, getting 4 routes in before the end of the day, and our drive back home. We resisted the temptation of spinach and chickpea curry at the Globe in Glossop, and a swing past our old house.
