\"\"With legs still very tired from last Sundays efforts at the Compass Sport cup I have had an easy week. Work has been tough with a huge presentation on Wed, then working till 3am upgrading 60 odd workstations. Thursday nights club\u00a0run from the Garsides house had a great social feel to it, with Ray getting the Spam award for running the wrong course last weekend.

The views into the valleys were great with the Autumn leaves and bright blue skies above. Views out towards The Peaks and The\u00a0Wrekin also spectacular, with no haze at all.<\/p>\n
