Dear All,
The Buxton to Macclesfield run will be on Sunday 4th September. This was the best date (not clashing with any obvious races Macclesfield Harriers will be attending). The intention is to pick a scenic and challenging route via Shinning and Lamaload Reservoir. I’m discussing this with Peter Nolan, who has some good ideas for the route. As with the Gritstone Trail this is not a race - anyone who wishes to push themselves, I will be interested to see how quick the route can be done. This route will be approx 14 miles.
I suggest we get the bus from Macclesfield (or a lift if you can) I have had a quick look at public transport and there is a special Sunday bus services provided by Derbyshire County Council. The no 58 bus leaves Macclesfield at 9:30am and arrives at Buxton Market Place at 10:00am - So a 10:15am start. I will check this is still correct.
I hope you will be able to make it. Please pass on this information to anyone else interested in coming along.
Jon
