From Stuart:
I appreciate that this year’s series doesn’t include any particular fell running achievements (we do try each year but unfortunately fell runners seem very reluctant to stand up and tell their stories), but I know that some Mercia members are into other activities such as climbing, kayaking etc that feature this year. The Local Spot lecture in February does occasionally attract local speakers interested in telling about their fell running exploits...Andy Lewis...so it’s not all bad.
Plus any final profits from the series have always gone directly to the Youngsters in the Mountains fund
<http://www.highsports.co.uk/blog/youngsters-in-the-mountains/> and one or two under 18 year old fell runners (Kaya Saul, Robsons, etc) have benefitted from financial awards from the scheme over the years. Therefore support for the lectures from all quarters; climbers, runners, walkers etc is relevant.
Regards.
