Christmas Race Training ?

[andy Burgess]

just called the birds in to feed , back in the house and see 5 or so flying very close to the ground . went back down to the loft to check and , a big batch went over (around 60 at a guess) .

somebody is training , rarely see a bird down here. just wondered if its preparation for a Winter/Christmas race.

Not too cold Andy. Ive been training for a few weeks now and latebreds are lapping it up. Theyve had 3 25 milers this week.

Remember the Xmas race I ran, almost 100% returns by everyone and temps were sometimes at freezing and below lol

Had them at Dunbar on Monday Charlie, lost 1 but delighted with the rest as some are very young yet.
