We are
arranging a run on the 1st August in memory of Karl Hiem who lost his long
fight against illness just before the CTC Run last year. Although Karl lived in
Kent he came to Yorkshire each year for the CTC Run and to enjoy our local runs
around the Helmsley area, the Hanbleton Hills, and the Yorkshire Moors. Hence
the Karl Hiem Memorial Run organised by Sherwood Grimshaw and Ray Parkin. There
will be two starting points, Tadcaster and Easingwold, before the run out to
Helmsley and wherever else takes your fancy. The run passes through several
areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and you may come across the odd gentle
incline which I think others may call hills. |
