Getting 15 members up Helvellyn via Striding Edge yesterday (20th June) was amazing.

For some it was their first time, others pushed themselves way outside their comfort zone…

Seeing people’s reactions to the different sections of the hike was incredible, but their sense of achievement on the summit and at end was honestly priceless.

I love this team….

Nice to get out for a longer run. Legs felt a bit heavy but on the whole a good steady run with an aim of 9.15 min miles

Good news post!! ( from Rosie one of our members)

This is the fastest non stop 5k treadmill run I’ve done in ages!

This is thanks to LMF! This year I have mainly been focusing on some weight loss and strength training rather than just running!

I have lost nearly (only a pound away) a stone and I’m more toned than I’ve ever been!! Love it!

Thanks Dave and Rich and the fab group I train with every Thursdays (all other days just me, in my own little home gym lol) Rosie Westland

On 6 June 1944, known as D-Day, Allied forces launched the largest seaborne invasion in history during the Second World War. More than 156,000 troops from the United States, Britain, Canada, and other Allied nations landed on five beaches along the coast of Normandy in German-occupied France.

The operation, codenamed Operation Overlord, aimed to establish a foothold in Western Europe and begin the liberation of territories occupied by N**i Germany. The beaches were given the code names Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword.

Despite fierce German resistance, particularly at Omaha Beach, the Allies succeeded in securing the beachheads. Thousands of soldiers lost their lives or were wounded during the assault, but the operation marked a decisive turning point in the war. The success of D-Day enabled Allied forces to advance across France and eventually contribute to the defeat of N**i Germany in May 1945.

Today, D-Day is remembered as a symbol of courage, sacrifice, and international cooperation in the fight for freedom.
