Vale of York trustee, Neil Musgrove, loves a hilly trail run and Leeds has more hills than Selby with some spectacular scenery to boot. Last month Neil took on the 7 mile Calverley Chaos organised by Great Owl Running.
The event really was chaos because the runners were set off in alternating directions according to their race number which provided an opportunity to say hello and well done to all the runners taking the opposite direction about half way round. After some decent climbs in the first half, the second was quite fast and Neil passed a few people in the last few miles to finish second in his direction and sixth overall.
A well earned beer from Kirkstall Brewery for all finishers ensured a nice end to the day.
