'Runners' by Roger Hart

[Bierzo Baggie]

In between my Baggie birth and Bierzo present I lived for much of my childhood in East Devon and very occassionally ran with a bunch of loveable eccentrics called The Axe Valley Runners. One of the “runners” goes by the name of “The lean, mean, runner bean” and it was on his webpage, full of running writing, that I first came across the above cited article. It sure seems to be on everybody’s favourite running literature list. There’s plenty of other good stuff there too. Take a look.

Also, here’s the page of The Axe Valley Runners who organize amongst other events The Grizzly (would love to do this one year) and the midsummer dream footpath marathon (running, beer and cream teas...sounds right up our street...)
