Muddy Feet

The other week, Stu L kindly Invited Martin of http://alwayssearchingfor.blogspot.com/ and me, along on a Wirksworth Running Club Muddy Feet session. These are monthly off road runs, in the Derbyshire Dales. 

So for the second week in a row, we headed up to Wirksworth. At the market place we met up with Stu and other members of the Muddy Feet group, then set off on the climb up to the Black Rocks trig point, dropped down into the Derwent Valley where more Muddy Feeters(or should that be footers?)were waiting.

Quick introductions, along the canal path then up the other side of the valley to Crich, for a cuppa tea and a slice of cake.



Up to the Woofers (Sherwood Foresters/Worcester & Sherwood Foresters) memorial at Crich Stand. Then down the valley and back up to Wirksworth, following a different route.

About 10 or 11ish miles with a fair bit of up and down. A cracking day out, somewhere I had not run before with good company.

Many thanks thanks to Stu and the Muddy Feet group for having us along.
