Show Girl's Albanian Adventure

Lizzie Adams, who dazzled at Dufton Show last month, was in the mountains of Albania this weekend representing Great Britain in the World Mountain Running Championships. You'll find the best report here on the Mud Sweat and Tears website but Fell Running Briefs had our international news hound at the race with her camera.

The trials for this race were held in Witton Park in the mountains of Blackburn, the organiser rightly said "if they'd wanted building sites we could have provided any number"
