organised by work (poundland and as its their chosen charity all year round) well it's Finnally come round tommorow were up in Keilder, we set off at 11am from the castle and head around the lake coming back into the castle the boss says there's few Hills to get us goin but is a nice straight to Finnish. there's about 30 staff taking part all from different stores up here in the north east, 7 from my store lol ;p
we're all looking forward to it and I going to be a fab day out, got my camera ready haha :biggrin:
oh weve decided to hire bikes when we get there as we can't get our own bikes there but TBH if the boss was more organised we could have got them there some how bit NVM , we're all set now soo cant wait :smile: xx

thanx guys we had an amazing time up there we all started off on the south side of the lake loads of serious hills lol but made it round was 14 miles to the damn, 14.5 miles bk to the castle from the damn, coming back on the north side was a bit easier on the legs hills again but more straights to get speed up and some point we got lost at the 1 mile to Finnish, must have done more like 2 but got there in the end 4 hrs later ;) as us four were last in everyone was waitin next to the pub cheering us on had lush day oh and the weather was ok startin but heading bk in the sun was out way to hot lol xx
