This year's Cairde le Cheile was another great success, and a well organised event for a worthy charity, North West Hospice. Ideal weather, a large entry, the 'home' base at Saddler's Inn in Kingsland was perfect and the organising committee demonstrated once again what can be achieved by a local community. The format was similar to last year: a 6km Run, a 10km Run and a 'Walkers'.
