The Long Tour of Bradwell 2012

Bradda Dads, who are always keen to look at alternative sources of fund raising to benefit the village, assisted in staging The Long Tour of Bradwell 2012 with a view to possibly taking a more active role in the future.  The Long Tour is a punishing 33 mile/50 kilometer fell running/challenge walk event with 6,300 feet of ascent.  The event forms part of the Dark & White Challenge Events race series.

Starting at the Bradwell Sports Pavilion, the route takes in spectacular Derbyshire countryside and Bradda Dads marshalled at the various control points.  Bradwell Pre-School Group staff also assisted and we are grateful to them, especially for looking after the catering.  Many of the event participants remarked on the quality of the marshalling and the service we provided at the check points and also at the pavilion.
