This week’s Skamper highlights
Can you believe it’s still January? The longest month in the known universe hasn’t dampened the spirits of Skamperers this week!
Sarah Booth has been showing off this week. She’s claimed the top two places on the week’s leaderboard! Congratulations on beating your last time on Huntress Leeds. And nice work on Woodlesford Road Loop. (Sarah, we challenge you to find another course to claim the Gold, Silver and Bronze position before the weekend’s out!).
Well done to everyone else who managed two Skamper runs this week. Adam Herring, Laura Bier, Liza Keating, Sarah Booth, Stuart Milliner, Joe Brereton, Chris Leeson, Josephine Lightowler and Jon Barton.
Quick update on the highly contested “Most Skamper runs of Year” competition. Chris Leeson has taken an early lead. But it’s a slim lead and early yet!
