Fell Runners
Voices From The Dales - A podcast by Andrew Fagg/Dales Countryside Museum
Categories:
Fell running is one of the oldest and most traditional sports in northern England. Races take place across the Yorkshire Dales throughout spring and summer. In this podcast you are taken to the ‘Hawkswick Dash’ in Littondale in June 2021, organised by the British Open Fell Runners Association. Hear the voices of Skipton’s ‘Mr Sport’ Roger Ingham, ‘Run The Dales’ writer and organiser Victoria Benn, Kilnsey Show fell race record holder Mick Hawkins and Wensleydale fell runners Heather Hodgson and Brian Carlisle. The cover photo is by Stephen Garnett Photography. As Stephen has said, the image, taken at the Hawkswick Dash, “captures the lung busting rawness of fell running”.
