Congratulations to Nick Cairns and Simon Bunn who completed the Lowe Alpine Mountain Marathon on the 6th and 7th of June, 2009.

 

The MOD is encouraging councils, businesses and homes across the country to show their support for Britain's Armed Forces by flying a special flag designed for the occasion.

Normally 25 degree plus temperatures are most welcome in the UK. However, when you competing in any sort of physical endeavour, it's just what you don't need. The body is quick to overheat, and in an attempt to cool itself, dehydration can follow.
