Discovered AR when I attended a Microsoft Challenge selection event for the Nationwide teams. Got my self selected as team captain. Quickly ramped up the training - moving on from road running, by hitting the Dales and the fells on foot and bike.
I've always enjoyed hill walking - and would frequently shake my head at fell runners. Knew things had changed when one misty morning on the top of Great Whernside (above Kettlewell) an old bloke in a woolly hat shouted to me "slow down and look at the view - what a waste!" - guess he had a point...........
